F.) to 1-inch depth. Carefully place bowl with chocolate into bowl
with water; water should come halfway up side of chocolate bowl.

3. With fork, one at a time, dip chilled centers into chocolate
mixture; gently tap fork on edge of bowl to remove excess
chocolate.** Invert coated center on prepared tray; swirl small
amount of melted chocolate on top to cover fork marks; let stand
until firm. Store candies loosely covered in cool, dry place. Coating
for 3 to 4 dozen centers.
* If water or moisture gets into chocolate, it can seize and tighten.
As an emergency measure, ONLY, stir in additional shortening, 1/2
teaspoonful at a time, just until chocolate is fluid again.
** If chocolate mixture cools below 84 F, return bowl with chocolate
into bowl with warm water. Chocolate is best for coating between 84
F. and 88 F.
