How to Make Apple Cider Snap

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/4 cup apple cider, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Continue cooking without stirring, swirling the pan occasionally, until the mixture reaches 300°F (150°C) on a candy thermometer (firm-ball stage).
  4. Immediately pour the hot mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Let cool completely (about 30 minutes) until firm.
  6. Once cooled, break the candy into pieces.
  7. Garnish with thin slices of fresh apple (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
