2 tbsp butter
2 bags white chocolate chips
500 grams of mini marshmallows
1 1/2 cups of jujubes diced
Directions
Prepare and 8X8 pan with parchment paper.
Over a double boiler, melt butter, chocolate chips and marshmallows. Melt until smooth. Remove from heat, stir in jujubes.
Pour into prepared pan. Chill for 2 hours. Cut and serve.
Can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
1/2 cup of any liquid. Can be juice, soda or even alcohol.
2 tbsp gelatin
2 tbsp sugar
Special Equipment
Gummy Bear Molds
Directions
- Combine the liquid, gelatin and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until the gelatin and sugar dissolve completely, about 1 minute (make sure there is no undissolved sugar stuck to the bottom of the saucepan). If any foam forms while stirring, skim it off and discard. Transfer the mixture to a small liquid measuring cup.
- Put the gummy bear molds on a flat surface and slowly fill each cup to the top. Give each mold a small shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until the mixture sets, about 10 minutes. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
