Makes 15 Pieces
Ingredients
- 2 cups Sarafino 100% Pure Maple Syrup
- Fresh snow
- 15 wooden popsicle sticks
DIRECTIONS
- Fill a large tray or container with snow, packing it down. Keep outside or put in the freezer while you cook the syrup. Or, pick a clean, snowy spot outside!
- Pour the maple syrup into a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until a candy thermometer reads between 235 and 245 F (112 to 118 C) or a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a firm ball.
- Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes, until the bubbles disappear.
- Drizzle syrup over the snow in thin lines about 5 inches long. If the syrup is too liquid, continue cooking. If the syrup is too thick, add a little water and stir.
- Let the maple syrup cool in the snow for 3-5 seconds, then place a wooden stick on one end and roll taffy into a lollipop.
- Enjoy!
