Chocolate Dipped Bonbons Recipe 2
From LoveToKnow Recipes
Instructions
- Slightly sweetened chocolate suitable for dipping candy may be bought in cakes like those sold for cooking purposes and at the same price.
- As depth of chocolate is needed and all chocolate left over may be used again and again, at least half a pound should be taken, no matter how little dipping is to be done.
- Break the chocolate in very small pieces, put into a small agate cup and set into warm (not hot) water.
- If a tiny double boiler be available, so much the better.
- Stir the chocolate occasionally while it is melting, being careful that no drop of water gets into the chocolate.
- When the chocolate is cooled to about 70 deg F., or a little below lukewarm, it is ready for use.
- Drop in a center, with a dipping fork push it below the chocolate, lift, and when drained a little drop onto a piece of oilcloth or waxed paper.
- If the candy is to be smooth on top, draw the fork across the edge of the chocolate dish (to remove superfluous chocolate), then slide the candy onto the oilcloth.
- If there is to be a design on top, let the top of the candy be downward in the chocolate; turn the candy upside down from the fork and draw the fork over the top.
- Remove to a cool place, to "set" the chocolate.
