Original recipe here
I apparently forgot to take pictures of the finished cut little gummies.....I guess I was too busy eating them!
Servings: 256
About 3-4 calories per piece
Ingredients:
2 cups wine (16 fl oz)
8 tbsp gelatin (unflavored)*
4 tbsp maple syrup**
*I used the same gelatin as the recipe-creator used.
**I didn't want to make it too sweet, so I stuck to the low-end of the amount of syrup.
Step 1: In saucepan, warm wine on low heat. Keeping the temperature down is very important, so the alcohol does not burn off.
Step 2: Add gelatin 1 tbsp at a time, stirring well before adding more. Finish adding all gelatin and stir until fully dissolved. Froth is OK, it just make some bubbles in your gummies.
Step 3: Add syrup, to taste.
Step 4: Pour mixture into greased 8 x 8 pan (or candy molds).
Step 5: Let cool. You can put in them in the fridge to set (I did); I left them for a few hours and they were fully set.
Step 6: Flip pan upside down on cutting board. You may have to bang the pan down a little to get the gel to slide out.
Step 7: Cut as desired. Because I doubled the original recipe, my gel was pretty thick, so I cut it into smaller pieces (16 x 16).

These turned out so good. And they're addictive. I sat there with a bowl in front of me and easily ate 30-40 pieces before I figured out I should stop. I made both red and white wine versions, and they both turned out well. I will DEFINITELY be making these again!

I made these with cranberry juice and separately with lemon juice, instead of wine, and they turned out just as good! So if you want a non-alcoholic version, it totally works!
