By dizzybetts

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 sticks margarine or butter
• 2/3 cups evaporated milk
• 3 cups white sugar
• 1 7-oz. jar marshmallow cream
• 1 12-oz. package white chips (Nestle's white morsels, for example)
• 3 teaspoons orange extract
• 12 drops yellow food coloring
• 9 drops red food coloring

Preparation

Step 1

Butter a 13 x 9 pan. Mix margarine, milk and sugar and bring to a boil over medium high heat, stirring constantly. After mixture starts to boil, stir constantly for five minutes. Remove from heat and add chips and marshmallow cream. Mix well. Remove one cup of the mixture and set aside. To the remaining mixture, add the extract and food coloring. Mix well. Spread into buttered pan. Scoop remaining cup of mixture onto the orange in the pan. Spread as much as possible, then swirl into the orange with a knife. When candy completely cools, cut into small pieces.

Make sure you have the food coloring and extract measured out and ready to mix. This candy sets up fast and you need to work quickly.
