• 1 cup Sugar
• 1 tsp FlavoringExtract ~Optional
• Food Coloring ~ Optional

1. 1
   In a medium sauce pan combine the first 3 ingredients, stir slowly over medium heat. You don't want to whisk it up because you'll get froth at the top.
2. 2
   Take a candy mold and spray lightly with non-stick spray. If you don't have a candy mold use a 9×9 baking dish and cut them into squares, kinda like turkish delights.

   Once your mixture in the pan becomes clearish and not cloudy and more its ready to add your flavor extracts and a couple drops of food coloring, if you want and then to go in the molds.

   Its easier to pour this into a glass measuring cup with a pour spout to pour into the molds at this point.
3. 3
   Pour liquid into your molds up to the edge. Allow to cool on the counter top for about 30 minutes and then turn out on to a cookie sheet.
4. 4
   Store in a plastic bag in the fridge. Of course they probably won’t last that long!
5. 5
   Variations

   Theres lots of things you can try with these like….

   Substitute 1 cup of herbal tea for one of the cups of juice for a nice change. I love hibiscus.

   Add a couple drops of food coloring for a brighter color( I don’t like to personally, but you might ;0)

   Substitute 1/2 of cup of apple sauce or pureed fruit for 1/2 cup of juice.

   Sour Gummys~ Take 1 TSP of citric acid and 1/2 cup of sugar and combine. When you pull your gummys out of the mold roll in the sour sugar for super sour gummys!

   Alternate Recipe~
   1 6 oz package of Jello mix
   5 packets of Knox Gelatine
   1 cup of water

   Follow instructions as listed. This makes a yummy, but less healthy version. ;0)

Chocolate Souffle

Ingredients
7 ounces finely chopped bittersweet or semisweet chocolate
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus for preparing the molds
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 large egg yolks

3 tablespoons warm water
1/2 cup sugar, plus 2 tablespoons
8 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Confectioners' sugar for garnish
Directions
Brush 6 (6-ounce) ramekins with soft butter, then coat with sugar. Put the prepared ramekins in the freezer. (This can be done a day ahead.)

Set an oven rack in lower third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.

Put the chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching, the water. Stir the chocolate occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Set aside.

Combine the egg yolks and warm water in the bowl of a standing mixer or large bowl and beat until frothy. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar, and continue beating until ribbons form, about 5 minutes. Very lightly fold the yolks into the chocolate mixture. (Rinse the bowl well, if using for beating the egg whites.)

Remove prepared ramekins from freezer. Put the egg whites in the bowl of a standing mixer, or large non-reactive bowl, add the lemon juice. Beat on medium until frothy; then gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and increase speed to high. Beat until the whites hold a stiff but not dry peak.

Working quickly, fold about a third of the egg whites into the chocolate to lighten; then fold in remaining whites until blended. Gently ladle or spoon the souffle mixture into the ramekins, and place on a baking sheet. (Level off the surface with a straight edge, scraping any excess mixture back into the bowl.)

Immediately bake until the souffle rises about 1 1/2 inches from the ramekins, and the tops are touched with brown, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven, dust with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.
