Decorating: thin strips of "red" fruit-roll up, pretzel sticks, cinnamon imperials, mini-chocolate chips and round peppermints
How to make it
Heat brown sugar, corn syrup, margarine and salt to simmering in a 4-quart pot over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
Add popcorn.
Cook, stirring constantly, until popcorn is well coated (about 2 minutes).
Cool slightly.
Dip hands in cold water; shape mixture into equal amounts of 1-inch balls and 2-inch balls.
Place 2 inch balls on waxed paper and slightly push down 1-inch balls on top.
Wrap a piece of fruit-roll-up where the two balls meet as a "scarf" and slightly press onto popcorn balls. Stick pretzels sticks on the sides as "arms". Use candied imperials down the front as "buttons"and use as a "nose". Use mini-chocolate chips to make a "mouth" and "eyes". Slightly press down a peppermint on the top of the 1-inch ball for a "hat".
