- 4 boxes of Nerds
- Two bags of gummy bears
- a rectangular Tupperware container
- Kitchen sheers
- A damp cloth
- Wax paper
- A plate
- A microwave
- A fridge
- A dry towel
- A sink or bowl of water
- Two pot holders
1-Take a rectangular Tupperware container and put wax paper inside of it, shaping it around the container
2- Pour box of Nerds into the bottom of the container until covered
3- Put gummy bears on the nerds (try to get as many Nerds covered as possible) I ended up using 1 3/4 bags
4- Microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute or until the gummy bears are melted. If they bubble some, that's okay!
5- Take the container out of the microwave and pour the second box of nerds over the melted gummies until completely covered
6- Set two pot holders side by side in the fridge and set the Tupperware container on them. Chill in the fridge for an hour.
7- After chilling, take the Tupperware container out of the fridge and set it on the table or counter top.
8- Take a damp cloth (wrung out well) and place it on the counter or table surface.
9- Take the chilled nerd/gummy concoction out of the Tupperware container, wax paper and all, and set it on top of the damp cloth. Let it sit for a few minutes. (this makes it easier to peel the wax paper off)
9- Cut any excess wax paper away from the chilled nerds to make cutting them easier.
10- Take your last two boxes of nerds and pour them into the now empty Tupperware container. Keep them nearby!
11- Dip the kitchen sheers in a bowl of water or run them under some tap water. This will save you from a sticky mess.
12- Cut the nerds into strips (one strip at a time) and peel the wax paper off. Try to keep your hands dry, or else you'll have a really gummy mess. It's okay to rinse your hands or dip them in water to get the stickiness off, but dry them after!
13- After peeling the wax paper off of a strip, roll it in the remaining Nerds that you poured into the Tupperware container to cover any exposed gummy areas. I ended up cutting the nerds ropes in half when I did this. Place on a plate and enjoy!
