Gummi Protein Candies

Why spend $ for sugar free candy at the store? Make up a batch and you'll always have a treat on hand. Each candy gives you 2 grams of protein!

Ingredients (makes 24)
1 packet of Knox gelatin
8 oz Crystal Light or flat diet soda
4 oz boiling water
1 packet artificial sweetener

Mix the gelatin and boiling water in a heat proof bowl. Stir for 30 seconds until gelatin is melted. Check the spoon, there should be no granules. Let bowl sit on the counter for 20-30 minutes until lukewarm, then add sweetener and Crystal Light or diet soda. Stir to mix and pour into heart candy molds. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour or until set. This method gives a much better flavor than heating all of the liquids to boiling which destabilizes the aspartame.
