Tricking and treating may be all about the kids, but this grown-up use for candy corn will give adults yet another reason to raid the little ones' goodie bags. These martini-like cocktails use vodka infused with candy corn, which needs to be made at least 3 hours ahead.
Candy Corn Cordials
Recipe from the October issue of Food Network Magazine.
½ cup candy corn, plus extra for garnish
1½ cups vodka
Ice
2 ounces orange liqueur
Juice of ½ lemon
1 large egg white
1. In a jar with an airtight lid, combine the ½ cup of candy corn and the vodka. Cover and set aside for at least 3 hours. When ready, strain out and discard the solids.
2. To prepare the drinks, in a cocktail shaker filled with ice combine 4 ounces (½ cup) of the candy corn vodka, the orange liqueur, lemon juice and egg white. Shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds, then strain into 2 chilled martini glasses. Garnish with candy corn.
Makes 2 servings, plus extra infused vodka.
