Dipped in both white and dark chocolate, this two-toned candy really stands out on the goody tray. A batch is a tasty gift as well.

Angel Food Candy Recipe
  • Prep: 40 min. + standing Cook: 45 min. + standing
  • Yield: 12 Servings
40 45 85

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 teaspoons butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup dark corn syrup
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1/2 pound white candy coating, melted
  • 1/2 pound dark chocolate candy coating, melted

Directions

  • Butter a 13-in. x 9-in. pan with butter; set aside. In a large heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and vinegar. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 290° (soft-crack stage).
  • Remove from the heat; stir in baking soda. Pour into prepared pan but do not spread; cool. Break into pieces.
  • Dip each candy halfway into white candy coating; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets until set. Dip plain half of candies into dark chocolate coating; allow excess to drip off. Return to waxed paper until set. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 1-1/2 pounds.

Editor's Note: We recommend that you test your candy thermometer before each use by bringing water to a boil; the thermometer should read 212°. Adjust your recipe temperature up or down based on your test.

How in the world does this qualify as a Low Fat" recipe? I'm sorry but 343 calories and 11 grams of fat is NOT Low Fat.

After making this and getting a dense chewy candy, I did more searching and found most recipes go to the hard crack stage.
