      Title: Lollipops
 Categories: Candies
      Yield: 24 Lollipops
 
      2 c  Sugar
    3/4 c  Light corn syrup
      1 c  Water
      1 pn Salt
    1/2 ts Peppermint or cinnamon oil;
           -or to taste
           Red or green food coloring
           Popsicle sticks
 
  In a saucepan combine sugar, corn syrup, water and salt and bring
  to a boil.

  Cool mixtur until candy thermometer registers 300-310 F or a drop
  of the mixture placed in cold water produces a brittle strand of
  candy. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 to 1 ts peppermint or
  cinnamon oil. Stir in several drops of red or green food coloring
  and stir to combine. On a lightly oiled marble slab pour the syrup
  into small round shapes and position a paper lollipop stick in each
  round. As an alternative, pour syrup into lightly oiled small or
  regular cupcake tins and position a popsicle stick in each cup.
  Allow lollipops to harden and then carefully remove from either
  marble surface or cupcake tins. Individually wrap each lollipop in
  plastic wrap to prevent them from sticking together.
