Lemon Drop Candy Recipe
  1. Squeeze lemons until you get 1 cup of fresh juice.

  2. Combine lemon juice and sugar and stir to dissolve.

  3. Boil mixture until thick and syrupy—about 20-30 minutes, stirring regularly.

  4. Test the syrup by dropping a small bit into cold water—if it crystallizes and becomes brittle, it’s ready!

  5. Taste your mixture as you go—if there's any hint of burnt flavor, it's a good time to stop cooking.

  6. Spray down a mini muffin tin or silicone mold with cooking spray and add heated mixture to the tin/mold.

  7. Fill each mini muffin cup less than halfway full, or fill small silicone molds about ¾ full.

  8. Transfer filled molds to the fridge to cool until hardened, ~1-2 hours.

  9. Pop out and enjoy!
