Ridiculously Simple DIY Toy Story Alien Lollipops

Now, we were just doing a simple Toy Story movie night, well, series of nights, to re-introduce the kids to one of my favorite movies of all time.

So, I needed a treat that I could make once, but have over and over for the different movie nights.

I was inspired to make these based on my candy glass recipe.

It’s so simple, just 5 ingredients–and literally I made these while I was cooking dinner, so they’d be ready when we were about to start the movie.

Now, a trick I want to impart…you have to warm that corn syrup in the microwave for about 20 seconds before you try to pour it into the sauce pan.

It’s not really “part of the recipe” but it makes pouring it so much easier.

And from there, it’s just add the sugar and water, then stir.

I like to stir it before I put it on the burner because my burner is just sliiiiightly larger than my saucepan.

That means, when I first turn-on the burner, it’s hot hot hot around the top of the pot.

It’s better when I turn the pot down, after the mixture gets boiling, but before I turn it down, yikes! LOL!

Now, I don’t have a candy thermometer anymore.

Long story–it broke.

So, I just rely on testing the Toy Story Alien Lollipops mixture to see if it is ready to come off the flame by drizzling some in a cup of water.

If the drizzle firms-up and can be cracked in my hands, it’s ready.

I used 10 drops of green food coloring–but you can use more, if you’d like a more intense green.

My container was pretty much out, so 10 it was for me!

Now, when I was getting the eyeballs onto my Toy Story Alien Lollipops and I might have burned the tip of my fingers a little.

To keep this from happening to you, I recommend either wearing gloves or giving the Toy Story Alien Lollipops a second for the surface to cool.

Not too long or the eyes won’t stick, though.

After that, it’s just a waiting game.

You can put your Toy Story Alien Lollipops into the freezer to speed-up the firming process, but my freezer was full, so I had to just wait! LOL!
