Cut-Out Candy
2 pouches Fruit Pectin
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups sugar, measured into separate bowl
1-1/3 cups light corn syrup
1 envelope Kool-Aid Unsweetened Soft Drink Mix, any flavor
Additional sugar for rolling
Butter or spray a 13x9-inch baking pan with cooking spray; set aside. Stir
fruit pectin, 2 Tbsp. water and baking soda in 4-quart saucepan. (Mixture
will
foam slightly.) Cook on high heat, stirring constantly, until foam has
thinned.
Remove from heat; stir in 2 cups sugar, corn syrup and soft drink mix.
Stirring constantly, bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't
stop
bubbling when stirred) on high heat and boil 3 minutes. Remove from heat;
stir mixture until bubbles have thinned.
Pour immediately into prepared pan. Let stand at room temperature until
mixture is cool and firm, about 3 hours. Loosen edges with point of sharp
knife.
Invert pan onto wax paper which has been sprinkled with about 2 tablespoons
sugar.
Sprinkle an additional 2 tablespoons sugar over top of candy. Cut into
1-inch squares or decorative shapes with small cookie cutters. Roll candy
pieces
to coat in sugar, shaking off excess. Let stand overnight, uncovered, at
room temperature before packing or storing. Makes 24 servings, 4 pieces each.  
Enjoy.
