RECIPE:
ICICLE
CANDY
1
c. fructose
½ c white rice syrup
½ t Lorann
wintergreen flavoring
Blue
liquid food coloring
Powdered
sugar
Preheat
oven to 185 °F. Lightly spray cookie sheet and a large sharp knife
with cooking spray (we recommend PAM).
Thoroughly mix sugar and light corn syrup in a 4-cup microwave-safe
glass measure. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH for 3 minutes
and 15 seconds.
Remove
from the microwave and carefully remove plastic wrap. Quickly stir the
sugar mixture and then cover with a NEW sheet of plastic wrap. Microwave
on high for another 3 min + 15 sec.
Remove from microwave,
carefully remove plastic wrap and stir with a clean spoon. After boiling
has ceased, stir in coloring and then flavoring.
Pour
syrup quickly, but carefully using a spoon to control flow, onto prepared
cookie sheet, tilting sheet slightly to form an 8 inch by 6 inch puddle.
As the sugar mixture begins to set up, cut candy into 1/2 inch by 4 inch
strips. Return sheet to oven for 1 or 2 minutes to soften for
twisting.
Remove 1 strip from
sheet and gently twist and pull into icicle shape. You can also wrap the
candy around a pencil, then pull off to form a curled shape. Repeat
with the remaining strips, leaving the cookie sheet in the oven to keep
strips soft and pliable. If strips get too soft, let them cool a bit
until they are a firmer consistency. Cool strips on a rack. Do
not refrigerate.
Store
flat in airtight containers between waxed paper.
