Maine Maple Snow Candy

1. 1

   Pour the maple syrup into a deep pot and bring to a boil--but don't let it boil over.

2. 2

   Boil for 4 minutes.

3. 3

   Make a snowball out of the one cup of clean snow and put it on a plate or small bowl.

4. 4

   Test the syrup by pouring a small amount onto the snowball; if it clings to the snow and stops running, it is ready.

5. 5

   Slowly pour the syrup in short, thin lines onto the packed snow in the pan.

6. 6

   As it hardens, pick it up and eat it with a spoon or twist it onto popsicle sticks.
