Semisweet Chocolate Dipping Sauce
(Yield: 1 cup (250 mL)
I did this once but since I dont do much chocolate I dont use it often.
1 cup (250 mL) nonfat dry milk powder
1/3 cup (90 mL) cocoa
2 tblsp (30 mL) paraffin wax
1/2 cup (125 mL) water
1 tblsp (15 mL) liquid shortening
1 tblsp (15 mL) liquid sugar replacement
Combine milk powder, cocoa and wax in food processor or blender; blend to soft
powder.
Pour into top of double boiler and add water, stirring to blend. Add liquid
shortening. Place over hot (not boiling) water, and cook and stir until wax
pieces are completely dissolved and mixture is thick, smooth and creamy. Remove
from heat.
Stir in sugar replacement and let cool slightly.
Dip candies according to recipe. Shake off excess chocolate. Place on very
lightly greased waxed paper and allow to cool completely. (If candies do not
remove easily, slightly warm waxed paper over electric burner or with iron.)
Store in a cool place.
