Description

Make your own soft and chewy candy like Tootsie Rolls at home with this recipe. Make them truly your own and finish them by rolling in nuts or coconut at the very end.

Ingredients

• 2 oz. unsweetened chocolate, chopped
• 1/2 c. light corn syrup
• 2 T. softened butter
• 3/4 c. powdered milk
• 1 t. vanilla extract
• 2-3 c. powdered sugar

Steps

1. Melt chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl or in a double boiler over simmering water.
2. When chocolate is melted and smooth, stir in corn syrup and butter, stirring until butter is melted. Stir in powdered milk and vanilla extract.
3. Add a cup of powdered sugar, stir until incorporated. When sugar is mixed in, add another cup of powdered sugar, stir to mix. Dough will start getting stiff and might be difficult to stir in more powdered sugar into the candy.
