2 oz unsweetened chocolate
2Tbl butter
1/4tsp salt
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1tsp vanilla
3/4 cup dry milk
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Melt chocolate & butter (super easy in a pyrex cup in microwave on low for 45sec). Mix with salt, syrup, vanilla, & dry milk. Adding about a cup at a time knead in powdered sugar. Shape into hearts by rolling into a ball and then cleaving it and pressing sides down or roll out & use cookie cutters. Wrap in waxed paper or store in airtight container. Added plus, they are guaranteed not to be rock hard - unlike the store bought kind.
We were more interested in eating them than making them look perfect, but you get the idea:)

This is intriguing - who doesn't love tootsie pops and it is annoying when they get rock hard.
ReplyDeleteI was really enjoying looking at your tutorials and making plans to utilize them. Until I saw the Tootsie Roll recipe. All other plans have been put aside because these are now a necessity for me to make!! Thank you!!!
