  1. Sam

    Does anyone know if this would work with splenda? I love hot peppers but want less carbs.

  2. Dave REVIEW:

    good recipe. takes longer than 20 minutes to boil down to a syrup though but maybe I turned the heat down to far. I didn't add the food coloring but I think I will next time because the jalapenos lose some of their bright color when cooked.

  3. getty REVIEW:

    I was very pleased with this recipe. It took longer than posted but it turned out. I think the reason someone thought it was too thin was because she did not wait for it to cool. It turned out great for me though I think I will add a little more water than called for so it won't be as thick. I will make this often as we love it with cream cheese and crackers! Thanks!!

  4. Joann REVIEW:

    I tried this tonight and something is wrong.I think maybe too much water?? The mixture never did boil down to the candy stage, boiled 25 minutes, gave up and turned off. More like runny pancake type syrup, far from candied jalepenos.
