To Debbie from AR who wanted a recipe for making sweet pickles using a gallon jar of dill pickles.

Candied Dill Pickles
( you will need to adjust amounts to make one gallon)

1 qt. dill pickles, drained and cut into 1 in. chunks
3 cups sugar
2/3 cups vinegar
2 Tablespoons pickling spices tie in cheesecloth or a pickling bag

Boil sugar, vinegar, water, and pickling spices 1 minute. Cool slightly. Put pickles back in jar and pour the hot syrup over them. Store in refrigerator for 7 to 10 days before you use.
Keep refrigerated.
