  • Aplets and Cotlets

    Recipe

    Title: Aplets and Cotlets
    Categories: Candies
    Yield: 64 servings

    3 tb Gelatin
    3 c Apple juice or unsweetened
    -apricot juice
    1 1/3 c Granulated sugar
    2 tb Each lemon and lime juice,
    -or more as needed
    2/3 c Cornstarch
    2 c Walnuts, chopped
    1 c Powdered sugar

    Makes about 64 small cubes

    Soften the gelatin in 1/2 cup of the apple juice. Boil remaining
    juice with the sugar for 15 minutes to concentrate it. Mix the lemon
    and lime juice, and add all but 1/4 cup cornstarch to dissolve it in
    the mixture. Add both gelatin mixture and cornstarch mixture to the
    boiled juice and boil again rapidly for 10 minutes until very thick,
    stirring constantly. Taste for sweet and sour and add more lemon
    juice if wanted.

    Mix in the walnuts and pour mixture into a 9-by-9-by-2-inch baking
    pan that has been dipped in cold water. Let paste harden 12 hours or
    overnight, then cut with a sharp knife into squares. Mix together the
    reserved 1/4 cup cornstarch and powdered sugar. Remove squares with a
    spatula and roll each in the powdered sugar mixture (the cornstarch
    helps keep the sugar dry).
