I halved this recipe & not sure if that was where the problem was, but many things did not work out for me... I added the sugar gradually, thank goodness b/c halfway through the sugar, the mixture turned very crumbly & when I tasted it, it was good but almost too sweet &I knew I couldn't add any more. It was still sticky enough to roll into eggs but just barely. I used semisweet chips & they did not melt well- unfortunately I did not have shortening & subbed butter b/c I thought that would smooth it out but I added nearly 3 tbsp (to only 4 oz choc) and it still was not smooth or 'dippable', so I ended up having to smear it onto my eggs w/ a mini spatula & my hands. They were not pretty at all, good thing it was just for me & my husband. But, they did taste good when all was said & done. Next time, I'd cut down on sugar and use the chocolate that is made for candy making.
