Heisenberg’S Blue Rock “Meth” Candy
- 1/2 cup water
- 3/4 cup light corn syrup
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons hard candy flavoring extract (LorAnn flavorings recommended)
- 1 drop blue gel food coloring (AmeriColor gels recommended)
- Line a baking sheet with foil and spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the water, corn syrup and granulated sugar. Place the pan over medium-high heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Bring the mixture to a boil. As soon as mixture comes to a boil, stop stirring and brush down the sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming. Insert a candy thermometer.
- Continue to cook the candy without stirring until it reads exactly 285 degrees F on the thermometer. Do not overcook it or it will start to take on a caramel color and your candy might turn green!
- Take the pan off the heat and let it sit just until bubbles stop breaking on the surface. Add the flavoring of choice and a drop of food coloring. Stir everything together.
- Pour the candy onto the prepped baking sheet and tilt it so that it runs into a thin layer. Let it set completely at room temperature.
- Once candy is set, break it into small pieces by hand.
- For the full "crystal meth" experience, place the candy pieces in medium zip-lock bags and crush them lightly with a rolling pin. Store in airtight containers.
