This Kid-Friendly Kool Aid Candy DOTS Recipe is so simple to whip up and the kids will have a blast making them...and eating them too, of course!
Kid-Friendly Kool Aid Candy DOTS Recipe
Summer is almost over...well, it is in Miami, anyway! The kids go back to school in the middle of August, which has always shocked me because it's the hottest time of the year! I wish our school system would wait until Labor Day, when it's just a little bit cooler.
As the summer comes to an end, I think our kids are probably crawling the walls with anticipation - or dread - about going back to school. Why not let them have a little extra fun in the days leading up to school starting?

How to make this Kid-Friendly Kool Aid Candy DOTS Recipe
Ingredients needed to make this Kid-Friendly Candy DOTS Recipe
- 2 cups of powder sugar
- 1 Egg white
- 2 Table spoons (about) of honey (I just drizzle the honey for 6 seconds.)
- 1 table spoon of water
- Wax paper -Cut into small pieces for the candy
Directions for making this Kid-Friendly Candy DOTS Recipe
First start by mixing your powder sugar and egg whites together. Then add in your honey and water. If it is too thick then add another table spoon of water. It should become like a thick paste.
Now you want to separate into 2-4 bowls. Then add in a half of packet of kool aid into the bowl and mix well. Then add each color into a icing bag or even a zip lock baggy to the one corner.
Then snip off the corner and make little dots on your wax paper.
You want to let it sit and harden a little before enjoying.

Those are great. I used to love candy dots when I was kid. These would be so fun to make.
TerriAnn @ Cookies & Clogs says
This looks cheaper and a whole lot more fun than buying them! The Kool-Aid probably adds a nice flavor too besides just coloring.

I remember eating Dots as a kid. I'll have to make this with my grandkids sometime.

I remember eating candy dots off of paper as a kid and know my own kids would love them. I am sure your recipe tastes like more than just pure sugar too!
