This chewy fruity candy is a refreshing change of pace from traditional chocolates and fudge. It keeps well in the refrigerator— if you have any left over!
Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups raspberry or cinnamon applesauce, divided
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup applesauce and gelatin; set aside to soften. In a 2-qt. saucepan, bring sugar and remaining applesauce to a boil. Add gelatin mixture; return to boiling. Boil for 15 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla and nuts.
2. Pour into a buttered 8-in. square pan. Cover and chill overnight. Cut into 1-1/2-in. x 1/2-in. pieces; roll in confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate for several hours. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Yield: about 7 dozen.
