Candy Clay

Description
A recipe for Candy Clay

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces vanilla flavored candy coating or almond bark, cut into pieces
  • 1/3 cup light corn syrup
  • 4 food colors (recommend paste form instead of liquid)
  • 2 teaspoons assorted small candies

Preparation
Prep Time: 15 minutes (Ready in 1 hour 45 minutes)

1. Line 8-inch square pan with foil; spray foil with nonstick cooking spray. Place candy coating in medium microwave safe bowl. Microwave on High for 1 minute. Stir; continue to microwave in 15- second increments until coating can be stirred smooth.

2. Add corn syrup; blend well. Spread candy coating mixture evenly in sprayed foil lined pan. Let stand at room temperature for 20 to 60 minutes or until dough is firm enough to handle.

3. Spray inside of 4 food storage plastic bags with nonstick cooking spray. Divide dough into 4 sections. Squeeze each section with hands until workable. To color each section, place dough in sprayed bag. Add food color as desired (about 1/8 teaspoon for 1/4 of dough); knead dough until color is well blended. Turn bag inside out; scrape out dough. Let stand 15 to 30 minutes before sculpting.

4. Cut each section of clay into 3 pieces. Sculpt clay as desired. Decorate with small candies. Candy clay will harden when exposed to air. (Store unused clay in sealed plastic bag. Before sculpting, knead with hands to soften or microwave several seconds.)
