| Hand Dipped Angel Food Candy |
Recently my sista Amy and I had fun making Angel Food Candy. We were inspired by watching Amy's Dad try to make it over the years. We both identify with the word "try" because we too discovered that sometimes it takes a batch or two (or three) to get it right. We joked about having to have enough ingredients on hand just in case it doesn't work out.
Angel Food Candy
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Dark Karo Syrup
- 1 Cup White Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon White Vinegar
- 1Tablespoon Fresh Baking Soda
- 2 bags good quality chocolate chips melted
Cook Karo Syrup, White Sugar and Vinegar over Medium heat, don't stir once sugar is dissolved.
Cook until 300-310 degrees, remove from heat and quickly add 1 Tablespoon fresh Baking Soda. Stir it quickly, don't over stir. If you do, it will scorch it and give it a burnt taste. Pour mixture in parchment lined 9x13 pan, do not spread, do not touch, walk away, don't be tempted to touch it. Allow to cool.
Once cool, cut into pieces. It will crumble and and look a little haphazard but don't let that stop you...just dip into melted chocolate and it will look and taste delicious.
Yum. I love this stuff! Seriously though, the first step in making this is to invite you over. Success ... and laughs guaranteed. :)
ReplyDeleteAmy, Thanks for reading this and sharing your comments. Most of all thanks for inviting me over to make it with you. I wouldn't have had the gumption to test drive it without your suggestion to do it together. I like making it with you the best because you (are awesome and) always have the BEST most finest Chocolate!!! Luv you.
