Homemade Shamrock Gummies

I found a recipe on Pinterest and then changed it up a little bit but I have been wanting to make homemade gummies so I figured St Patrick’s Day was the perfect holiday to try it out. The first batch we made was a little too gummy so we adjusted the gelatin to make it a little firmer and easier to press the shapes out of the dummies. Also use unsweetened applesauce otherwise it gets a tad too sweet.

What you need:

1 1/2 cups Applesauce (unsweetened)

2 1/4 cups sugar

2 packs of Lime Jello

4 packs of Gelatin

Shamrock Cookie Cutters

Parchment Paper

Baking Pan

How to make it:

1. Put all the ingredients into a pot on medium heat
2. Stir
3. Once it boils wait one minute and take it off the heat
4. Pour into parchment paper lined baking pan
5. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm
6. Lightly dust top with sugar
7. Take out of refrigerator and use cookie cutter to make a shape
8. Roll gummy in sugar and taste test!
