Reviews
I tried these today to give as holiday gifts. Growing up, popcorn balls were a staple, but I wanted to try something different. These are definitely kicked up. I did omit the ginger, it was very expensive at the store. I’ll bet they are really yummy with the ginger. If I were to make them again without the ginger, I would add say orange liquer or some other flavoring.
