No I'm not making this post for birthday wishes but because I am 30. :O) Today I am not really blogging today just enjoying my last day of vacation before we go back to work and school. How many of my parent readers are excited their kids go back tomorrow?? I am going to make myself an amazing Gluten Free feast today which I will post later. I made my very first New York Cheesecake last night with a recipe from my friend at My Side of Life you can find HERE. My journey to going gluten free has really taught me a lot of things in just a few short days. Mostly EVERYTHING I have that I love has gluten.lol After suffering a headache for months though I am on day 9 and it is GONE! I feel great and am ready to take on 30 full force! Happy Sunday everyone watch some football, eat some food and hug the ones you love.
Most hard candies call for corn syrup, but since I was out and I have 3 children home I decided to experiment and make something fun! Here is what you need:
2 Cups of Sugar
2 Cups of Water
1 Package Sugar Free Jello
A candy Thermometer
Making candy is a pretty tricky process and trust me I messed up a batch or two getting this to work right.lol Put the sugar and water into the pot and turn on medium whisking well till the sugar is dissolved. Stirring pretty regularly to help the sugar from burning. As the sugar begin to boil turn the heat up to high. Watch your thermometer when the candy reaches 230 pour in the jello continuing to mix. Pour this mixture immediately into a cake pan that is lined with parchment paper of you can rub a little veggie oil in it. The candy will continue to cook as it melts anything over 230 you will be left with a burnt candy that tastes like licorice.lol After you candy is cooled completely turn it out onto a cookie sheet and break apart :O) I like to dust mine …
