Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Line an 8x8-inch pan with waxed paper; coat the paper with vegetable oil.
- Combine 1 cup sugar, jellied cranberry sauce, and raspberry Jell-O(R) mix in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar and gelatin have dissolved. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes, stirring often. Mix walnuts into candy.
- Pour candy into prepared pan and let set at room temperature overnight. Cut candy into squares and roll squares in sugar. Place sugared candies onto waxed paper to set.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- Instead of waxed paper, a silicone pan can also be used. These don't store well for extended periods and may need to be rerolled in additional sugar. I don't like nuts in these, but the rest of the family uses walnuts.

FANTASTIC! I could've eaten the syrup, that's how good it smelled/tasted, lol. I did not add the optional nuts, b/c I don't think I would've cared for that. After pouring it into the pan, I let ...

It was fine it could have been easier to make but it was good but way too mushy

I followed the recipe to the T, but it didn't set, and ended up being googey and a big mess. :(
