Cooking Tips
Colored Sugar: Place 1/2 cup granulated or sanding sugar in resealable plastic bag. Add 5 drops of McCormick® Assorted Food Colors and Egg Dye or McCormick® Assorted NEON! Food Colors and Egg Dye. Add additional food color, a drop or two at a time, if more intense color is desired. Seal bag and knead sugar until the color is evenly distributed. Spread in a thin layer on a baking sheet and break up any large lumps. Allow to dry thoroughly, about 15 to 20 minutes. Sift or press through sieve to return sugar to its original texture, if needed.
Flavor Variations: Use McCormick® Pure Almond Extract or Pure Lemon Extract in place of the vanilla.
