PHOTO BY: Joanne F "This chocolate dough can be rolled out like a fondant, or molded to form roses, leaves or whatever. It's very simple to make, and quite impressive. This can also be made with white chocolate." INGREDIENTS * 1 pound semisweet chocolate, chopped * 3/4 cup light corn syrup DIRECTIONS 1. Melt chocolate in a large metal bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in the corn syrup. The mixture will become sticky, but keep stirring until very well blended. 2. Spoon onto a piece of plastic wrap, and wrap tightly. Let stand at room temperature until firm before using. Overnight is best. Use unsweetened cocoa powder on work surfaces to prevent sticking. -------------------------------------------------- Grocery Store Frosting SUBMITTED BY: Sandra "Just like the type all those in-store bakeries use.

I never realized that they had frosting mixes. I just have always bought it out of the can. That candy sounds really good though! I would love to find a recipe for that sometime and try it out. I bet my husband would love it too. I may have to do some internet searching for that!
