I have compiled some recipes and put them on my website. See:
http://www.bvdrangs.com/recipes/HPjelly.html
Also our recipe for jelly usinf lemon drop chiles is at:

There is a nice recipe for Habanero Gold from Ball Canning on a bunch of sites. Try searching "habanero gold" or here:

We often make a fruit jam and add chiles. a favorite is mixing Fatali chiles with peaches to make a Peach Fatali Jam. We have also done plum, cherry and raspberry with varios chiles.
