                This recipe is very good, but I have noticed that almost all recipes for popcorn balls follow one of two formulas, so I simplified them: You can use this recipe with a 1/2 cup of any add ins you like instead of raisins plus a few drops of food coloring if you like, or you can use this other one http://www.marthastewart.com/339167/popcorn-balls with 1 cup of add ins and whatever food coloring you like.
