Nothing to do with adorable pies, but I must suggest Red Hots for making cotton candy! I have one of those toy cotton candy machines that you can put regular candies in, and Red Hots (also lemon drops (smash those with a spoon or something) make the most amazing cotton candy!

One thing we LOVE using red hots for is making candied applebutter! It makes a reddish pink cinnamon applebutter that is to die for. And my great aunt used to make "Christmas Candy Pickles" using red hots basically a bright red cucumber pickle that has a unique texture. A favorite with us kids back in the day

I recently just tried that Trader Joe's shelf stable cream. I had the same thoughts as you, only to discover upon reading the box, it requires 6 hours in the fridge prior.

Or whip it over a bowl of ice water

[@jennifersignsoflife1375]

ALL whipped cream requires it to be extra cold. Most recipes will even suggest that you place the bowl & metal mixer parts into the fridge for an hour or so before whipping to get really fluffy whipped cream. I was very surprised Emmy didn't know this (or that she didn't read the box first, AND make an edit that it wasn't the product that failed).

[@lanieleigh9970]

The custard is the color of strawberry jello pie. I used to make it for my grandmother and also a family friend because they were both diabetic any time they came to visit because you can make the pie in any flavor of jello and you can make it diabetic by using sugar free premade graham crackers crusts (Keebler makes one) sugar free jello, and sugar free cool whip. It’s super simple: 1 package jello (any flavor in regular or sugar free), 1/2 cup boiling water, 1/2 cup cold water, 1/2 cup ice (I used crushed), 1 premade graham cracker crust (regular or sugar free), 16 ounce tub of thawed cool whip (regular or zero sugar). Mix boiling water and jello until dissolved, add cold water and ice and mix until all ice is melted and jello begins to thicken, refrigerate for 30-45 minutes until cooled completely, don’t allow the jello to set. Once jello has cooled, fold in cool whip a little at a time until there is no more liquid jello mixture. Mound into premade crust, cover loosely and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Serve. This can be made in advance or 4 hours before serving. I have made it in lemon, cherry, peach, strawberry, lime, grape, and berry blue, but any flavor of jello will work and all the flavors I have tried were yummy!

[@lolymop333]

Red Hots make me think of Christmas. My hometown does a little Christmas thing every year that we started going to because my choir sang there when I was a kid. They let you put red hots in your apple cider. My favorite place is always the little blacksmithing shed. They give out hand-crafted nails to people every year as sovoniers. I always have to get one. You get to watch them work and ask them questions and you can also buy some of the things they make. And it's nice and warm in there. We also always do the horse-drawn carriage ride, and we've had lots of fun on those.

[@minime7375]

It actually makes a difference if the whipped cream is chilled, I always put it in the fridge a day before I intend to use it. Also, the one I am using doesn’t require added sugar, I think that softens it too.

oh my gosh Emmy I got so excited about this video!! My sweet late grandmother used to use red hots instead of sugar to make rice pudding with leftover white rice! She grew up in the great depression era and truly used EVERY bit of food possible, and this was one of her zero-waste creations. It is a family favorite to this day, and I still make it when i’m missing her. This video reminded me so much of her “red hot rice” as she would call it, and it instantly reminded me of my grandma ❤️ I have leftover redhots in my cupboard from making red hot rice and i’m thinking about trying out this pie now!!! I think it’s SO interesting how they were used in the late 30’s/early 40’s in recipes!!!! So cool!! I thought my grandma invented it all on her own and unfortunately did not ask her while she was alive, so this video felt like a little piece of the puzzle has been solved for me ❤️

[@LP-km7gj]

I love pear and cinnamon together!

[@charitysheppard4549]

For years, my family has used these candies to make a "Christmas Drink." Put half-gallon of apple juice in a pot. Add 0.5-1 cup of Red Hots, depending on your taste. Bring to a simmer slowly and simmer until candies are dissolved. Taste, and if your apple juice as really tart, add sugar to taste. Serve hot or some like it cold over ice. It is also a great drink when you are sick or have a sore throat.

[@joshuaharper372]

When I lived in Kenya, I would sometimes buy shelf-stable cream because fresh cream was not always available. It is better as an ingredient (in sauces or in the custard portion of this pie) than for whipping.

Then whip cream cheese w/ pecans, and when the jello begins to set, put the cream cheese in between in, then cover with the rest of the jello. It's actually really good. Cool, sweet, spicy, creamy, just a little salty (from the cream cheese), & nutty.

Tip to avoid clumping is just to add the liquid a little bit at a time and to create almost a paste and then send that out by adding a little bit more liquid and you do that a couple times and it makes it very smooth you can do it with us you can do it with gravies just anything where you have to add like cornstarch and thickening stuff like that to liquids

If anyone is interested, I can try to find a recipe. Edit: I assumed they were pickled because she always canned them, but it's just a syrup solution.

I would probably Iike this pie without the pasta and with apples instead of pears. My grandmother from North Central North Carolina always used cinnamon spiced red apple slices to garnish our plates, so I grew up loving those flavors together. My grandmother probably would've loved this pie. I remember loving red hot hearts and atomkc fireball candy as a child. When I was 5/6 years old, in the early 1960s, I was allowed to have a running (up to $2 a month) credit account at the gas station/country store across the road from our house, I'd buy Red Hot Atomic Fireballs and I'd put a big atomic fireball in a glass full of hot water and wait for it to dissolve so I could have what I thought was a yummy spicy drink. $2 a month doesn't sound like much money but at the time the rent on our 3 bedroom house was $50 a month and most candy was just a penny or 2, a big candy bar was 5 cents. A coke or pepsi was 10 cents in a bottle. The drugstore in town sold 7 cent fountain sodas and 10 cent chili dogs. You could get a squirt of cherry syrup and or chocolate in your 7 cent cola drink for free.

Mostly sweet but you get a little bit of the jalapenos in the after taste. Which isn't bad. What is bad is the texture. It's gooey with stringy bits from the fruit and jalapenos and the crust is somehow both soggy and rock solid. I wouldn't recommend. But I do think Jalapenos are a good addition to pies if the pie is not otherwise a terrible pie which mine unfortunately was.

Hey emmy. I saw you post about this on Facebook and was so curious!!!! I’ve been wanting to try red hot jam. I love mid-century menu and going to make one of the items in their blog on Sunday

I've started learning Japanese through Duolingo, so I'm finally able to understand Itadakimasu.

At first I had doubts but it looks very cute and appealing. And as you kept working on your slice I felt like I might like it. Certainly something new.

A tip my grandma taught me for whipped cream was always to pop the bowl and the beaters into the freezer for just a few minutes before you whip the cream. Helps it set up faster 😊

My first experience with red hots candy was when I was little. I was at a party at someone’s house my parents knew, and there was a huge bowl of them in the bathroom for whatever reason. I had never heard of this candy, so I gave it a try. Luckily the faucet was right there

Yuck! I can’t imagine keeping any kind of food in the bathroom to collect bacteria. 🤢 How strange.

[@cutienerdgirl]

@@AloneInTheGarden That was my first thought too! All the pee and doodoo spray landing on the candy. 🤮

I can’t even handle my toothbrush being in there exposed and people really out here with food stuffs in there for their guests…. We really do be living in a society.

We put red hots in warm apple sauce with cream growing up. Delightful

Cinnamon candy jello mold was a thing in the 50s and 60s. I think it had strawberry jello and cream in it. Some type of canned fruit as well...pears or pineapple. My Mom made it for pot lucks.

So the curious thing about the word 'lentil' is that it came to describe a lot of things' shapes. Like tablets, some sweets, lentil shaped rocks for gardening and home decor... but what's interesting is that it's the same word they used for glass shaped in this way and the genitive for lentil in Latin is 'lens', which is where we get the word from.

Now that you mention it I haven’t seen big red hot gum in forever. I used to love it as a kid. Now I need to find some!

Dream whip is good. Starts out as a powder so its shelf stable and whipps up great
