Candy Dot Tutorial and Recipe

Pin to Pinterest

Candy Dots were a huge party of my childhood. My brother and I would sell lemonade on the golf course on Saturdays and then run to the corner store to use our quarters to buy these delicious candies. Being able to share these tiny candies with my children provides me a way to reminise and pass down this childhood favorite. Use this FREE Candy Dot Template and have fun making these timeless treats with your little ones.

Ingredients:

1 Pasteurized Egg White or 1 tbsp Meringue Powder
2 cup Powdered Sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract (optional)
Food Coloring

We also wanted to provide an easy chocolate chip muffin recipe, in case dad is in charge of recipe or two! We love this chocolate chip muffin recipe.

Ingredients:

2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
3 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup almond milk (or regular milk, we like almond)
1 egg
1/3 vegetable oil
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Optional: white sugar and brown sugar.

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
Line your muffin pan with cupcake liners or baking cups.

Slowly place your dry ingredients and mix into your wet ingredients until dry ingredients are moistened.
Fill your baking cups a little over 3/4 full (not too much – we like them to be large, but not over flow!)
