Knead in candies then enough red food coloring to tint a pretty red.

fun recipe; however, where in the world does one buy cinnamon red hots locally? i’ve searched all over Petaluma w/ zero success.
Help?!!
You can find the red hots in the baking section in a plastic bottle right next to the sprinkles, in most grocery stores.
