Steps:
- Combine popcorn and Rice Crispies cereal in a large bowl; set aside.
- In a heavy saucepan over low heat, warm caramels and water until the caramels are melted.
- Stir in peanuts and salt; mix well.
- Pour over popcorn mixture and toss to coat.
- With buttered hands, shape into 3 inch balls and place on waxed paper.
- Reshape if necessary when partially cooled.
Tips:
- Use fresh popcorn kernels for the best flavor and texture.
- Be careful not to overcook the popcorn, or it will become tough.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it is ready.
- Work quickly when dipping the popcorn balls in the caramel, or it will harden and become difficult to work with.
- If you want to make the popcorn balls extra special, you can add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or other mix-ins before dipping them in the caramel.
