      Title: NORTHWESTERN APPLE CANDY
 Categories: Candies
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      4    To 5 unpeeled apples
      2 tb Unflavored gelatin
    1/2 c  Cold water
      2 c  Sugar
      1 tb Cornstarch
    1/8 ts Salt
    2/3 c  Coarsely chopped walnuts
      1 ts Grated lemon peel
      1 tb Lemon juice
    1/3 c  Confectioners' sugar (for
           -rolling)
 
  Wash apples; without peeling or coring, cut in small pieces. Cook
  until very tender in just enough water to avoid scorching. Put
  through a food mill or sieve and measure 2 cups pulp into a 2 quart
  heavy saucepan. Cook until thick, stirring often.
  
  Soften gelatin in cold water. Mix sugar, cornstarch and salt; add to
  apple pulp.  Cook again over low heat, stirring constantly, until
  mixture is very thick.  Add gelatin; stir until gelatin is dissolved
  and mixture is again thick.  Remove from heat.
  
  Stir in walnuts, lemon peel, and juice.  Turn into an 8" square
  shallow glas dish that has been rinsed with cold wate. Let stand 24
  hours.
  
  Cut rectangles (about 60).  Roll in confectioners sugar, and place on
  rack until outside is dry.  Store in covered container. Makes about 1
  pound 12 ounces.
  
  Note: You can use 2 cups sweetened canned applesauce to make this
  confection, but reduce the amount of sugar from 2 to 1-1/3 cups.
