Equipment

  • 1 cotton candy machine I like the Nostalgia countertop appliance.
  • 1 cone to spin the cotton candy onto. Can also use

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pieces of Jolly Rancher candy, in flavor of choice. can also use any hard candy.
  • 2 pieces (additional) jolly rancher candy to make a fluffier spool of cotton candy. Make sure to use up all of first two pieces before adding more.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your cotton candy maker for 4-5 minutes minimum.
  • Add two Jolly Rancher candies to the cotton candy machine, evenly spaced apart. This will prevent the machine from shaking or being off-balanced.
  • Allow floss to form and twist cone above the cotton candy machine, collecting the floss onto the cone.
  • Once the candies have fully melted it will stop making floss automatically.
  • Allow machine to cool and clean it.
