Greetings everyone - delurking just long enough to post this.  I found 
this as part of an obscure dumpling recipe involving frogs legs...  
strange, but true!  I might roll them in granulated sugar at the end, 
similar to candied orange  peel...  Also,  would be an interesting 
addition to any fruit cake recipe, that is, if anyone makes them 
anymore.  Enjoy - Helen

Candied Chilies:

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water
20 dried small red-hot chilies

For the candied chilies: In a saucepan, bring the sugar and water to a 
boil. Reduce the heat and add the chilies. Simmer until they appear 
translucent, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool in 
the syrup. Strain the chilies, discarding the syrup, and dry on a 
cooling rack for about three hours.
