Dalgona Cookie (Korean Sugar Candy)
Dalgona Cookie is an old-fashioned Korean sugar candy that many Korean kids played in the past. It has recently regained popularity because of the Netflix K-drama Squid Games.
Servings: 4 cookies
Equipment
- Wooden Chopstick
- Vegetable or Canola Oil To keep the andy from sticking
- Parchment Paper or Silicone Mat
- Glass with Flat Bottom
- Cookie Cutter Different Shapes
Ingredients
- 6 tbsp Brown Sugar
- Baking Soda
Instructions
- Prepare all the materials you will need. Oil the parchment paper and the glass.
- While the pan is still cool, put the sugar in it. Turn to medium heat, and using a wooden chopstick continuously stir the sugar.
- Stir until the sugar melts and forms chunks. Keep stirring until until it completely melts.
- Remove from the heat and using your chopstick, dip it in the baking powder then mix it in the sugar. Do this twice. The sugar will lighten and puff up.
- On a flat surface, pour small circles on the parchment paper, let it set a little for about 20 seconds, and then flatten it using a glass.
- Lightly stick the cookie cutter in the sugar candy before it completely sets, make sure it creates an indent but not enough to cut the whole cookie. Push harder to make the game easier, push lighter if you want to make the game harder.
- Allow the candy to set and cool. It will harden and be brittle, then you can play!
