Taste It Tuesday

Candy Apple Jelly

7 cups apple juice

1 cup red cinnamon candies

8 cups granulated sugar

1 box Sure Jell Fruit Pectin

1/2 teaspoon butter or margarine

Measure apple juice and cinnamon candies into 6 or 8-quart saucepan. Measure sugar into separate bowl. Stir fruit pectin into fruit juice in saucepan. Add butter. Bring mixture to full rolling boil on high heat, stirring constantly. Quickly stir in all sugar. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon. Ladle quickly into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Seal and put into a boiling water bath for 5 minutes.

*Note~ I just made this jelly and the kids and I all liked it, but next time I will add more cinnamon candies. You could barely taste the cinnamon. The boxes I bought were 7 oz and I will add both of them next time.
