Did you know you can make the most amazing homemade meltaway candies using just THREE ingredients?! Yes, you read that right! With only a few ingredients, you can make these totally delicious and perfectly soft candies at home! Just pop one into your mouth and you will immediately notice the sugar crystals providing a delicious crunch to the outside of these candies, and then the inside of these candies is sweet & super creamy!

These are probably one of the top three treats I’ve ever made at home! I know that’s a big statement, but that’s how much my kids and hubby loved these! And I love that you only need a few ingredients for these babies! You might even have all the ingredients you need at home already, which means that you can be biting into one of these babies in no time…

2. Divide the mixture into equal portions and place into small cups. I divided mine into three equal sections and placed them in cups, because I had three different Jello varieties.

4. Once they are mixed, simply roll a teaspoonful of each into a small ball and then flatten the ball. Place them in the fridge for several hours to firm up.
