Chocolate-Dipped Fondant



---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05

Title: CHOCOLATE-DIPPED FONDANT
Categories: Candies
Yield: 1 Servings

Basic fondant; recipe follow
1 lb Dipping or coating chocolate
; small pieces

Recipe by: Los Angeles Times Place chocolate in top part of double boiler.
In lower part, place enough warm water (100 to 120 degrees) to touch top
pan. Keep water temperature constant. Melting chocolate takes time. Do not
hurry. When chocolate is softened, remove top of double boiler from water
and stir vigorously until smallest lumps are all worked out. This creaming
develops chocolate texture; it must be repeated often throughout dipping.
Exchange warm water for cooler water (85 degrees) in bottom of double
boiler. Make sure chocolate does not come in contact with steam or water,
even trace can spoil it. Pour 1 cup of chocolate onto marble slab or into
small bowl. Work back and forth with fingers until chocolate feels cool, 83
degrees is perfect. (Knowing when chocolate is cool comes with practice. To
test, let it string from tip of hand into melted chocolate. If it holds
ruffly appearance on surface for few seconds, it is ready for dipping.)
Drop fondant or other center of choice into cooled chocolate, roll to coat,
and lift out with dipping fork. Scrape off excess chocolate. Drop onto wax
paper, right-side-up. As candy drops from dipping fork, twist thread of
chocolate to make swirl across top of candy. Makes enough to cover about
3/4 pound of fondant.
