Sour Cream Candy Recipes

Steps:

• Put two 50-count silicone gummy bear molds on a baking sheet and lightly spray with nonstick spray.
• Combine the flavored gelatin powder, unflavored gelatin powder, 1 tablespoon of the citric acid and 1/2 cup cold water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently so that the sugar does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan, about 4 minutes. Do not boil.
• Pour the mixture into a small liquid measuring cup. With a spoon, skim off any bubbles that have formed. Carefully fill the molds and gently shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours.
• Combine the sugar and remaining 1 tablespoon citric acid in a medium bowl. Carefully remove the gummy bears from the molds and toss in the sugar mixture. Enjoy immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Butter a loaf pan and set aside. In a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan, combine sour cream and sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook to the soft ball stage (236 degrees, see note). Stir with wood or bamboo spoon, making sure it does not stick or burn. Do not cook past the soft ball stage.
• 2. Let sit in a pan of cold water for about 5 minutes to cool slightly, then add butter and beat until it loses its gloss. Stir in walnuts.
• 3. Spread and press the candy into the greased loaf pan, let cool, and cut into squares.

Steps:

• Grease 8-inch square pan with butter. In 2-quart heavy saucepan, stir together sugar, corn syrup, sour cream, 2 tablespoons butter and the salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Cook, stirring occasionally, to 234°F on candy thermometer or until small amount of mixture dropped into cup of very cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water; remove from heat. Cool without stirring to 120°F, about 1 hour. (Bottom of saucepan will be lukewarm.)
• Add vanilla, pecans and cherries. Beat vigorously and continuously with wooden spoon 5 to 10 minutes or until mixture is thick and no longer glossy. (Mixture will hold its shape when dropped from a spoon.) Quickly spread in pan. Let stand about 1 hour or until firm. Cut into 1-inch squares. Store in airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment. Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir in granulated and brown sugars, salt, and sour cream. Raise heat to medium-low, and cook, whisking frequently, until sugar has dissolved. Raise heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring frequently and scraping sides of pan with a spatula, until mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (240 degrees), 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Carefully stir in bourbon and vanilla (mixture will steam and bubble). Let cool, without stirring, for 2 minutes. Add pecans, and beat vigorously with a spoon until slightly opaque but still creamy, about 2 minutes.
• Drop spoonfuls onto baking sheet. (If mixture in pan begins to harden, stir in 1 teaspoon hot water, as often as needed; if it becomes runny, stir until firm.) Let stand until set, about 30 minutes.
