1- 10 oz. package semi-sweet chocolate chips 1/3 cup light corn syrup Heat chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at 30 second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each heating. When chips are completely melted add corn syrup and stir until mixture becomes thick; the chocolate will lose it's shiny appearance. Spread mixture on a large piece of wax paper with a spatula and top with another piece of wax paper. Gently even out with a rolling pin or by pressing to 1/2" thickness. Let dry 2-3 hours. Cut with cookie cutters, or break off pieces and knead until pliable and putty-like. Chocolate sculptures will harden when left out to dry. Place unused clay in an air-tight container. Discard after 3 months. |
