My siblings and I used to make these everytime we got Starbursts when we were kids! I don't remember which one of us came up with it, but they are amazing!!!! They're especially perfect to eat on a hot summer day, bc they're frozen. & Super simple to make. We would make giant ones, that we could eat for a week! . Beware of extreme stickiness of this project ...& trying to break teeth to eat bc of its fruity-goodness. ;D

Unwrap all of your starburst. I'm only using a few for a small ball, for this tutorial, but use as much as you want!!!
Place wax paper in microwave-safe bowl, & candy on top. . (This is the best way I've found to make them, since I've grown up. It's easier to get it off the paper, then the bowl. Lol)
Place bowl of candy in microwave. Microwave 10 SECONDS ONLY!!!! Do Not Exceed Time!!! (These melt extremely fast, easy.) . Take them out, they should be soft when you poke them.
EXTREME STICKY TIME!!! :D . + Take the paper out of the bowl, & start peeling the candy off. (Sometimes they stick) + Place 2-3 drops of water in your hands, & roll the candy into a ball with palms. (You might have to let it cool & repeat rolling) . CAUTION: Since all microwaves are different, they might be HOT, just let them cool for few minutes & then roll.
Wrap ball in another piece of wax paper or tin foil.
Place in FREEZER for 8 hrs or overnight.
While you wait ........ Make some Starburst Wrapper Bracelets!!!!! . . http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/wrapper_bracelet_2 By Cat Morley
Take it out of the freezer & Eat It Up!!! Hooray you made The Best Tasting Jawbreaker in the World!!! <3 . . As you chew & lick it, it will get softer & easier to eat. These are great on hot summer days, bc they are cold & super fruity. Wrap up & place back in freezer after every use, to keep its hardness.
