Ingredients
- 5 oz fine maple sugar
- 4 teaspoons maple syrup (preferably very dark syrup for its strong flavour)
Method
- Pour the maple sugar into a bowl. Add 5 ml (1 teaspoon) maple syrup at a time. After each addition, knead the sugar to evenly moisten the mixture.
- Repeat until you obtain a moist, sandy texture (it should hold together when pressed through your fingers).
- Fill the wells of a chocolate mould* with the mixture, pressing firmly. Level with a spatula, removing any excess sugar.
- Unmould candies immediately onto a dry work surface. You will need to tap gently to pop the candies out. Some may resist, but keep tapping and eventually they will come out.
- Let stand for one hour before handling.
These no-cook maple candies will keep for one month in a dry place.
* Chocolate moulds can be found in kitchen supply stores.
