Recipe - White Chocolate Leather

6 ounce Callebaut or Baker's Premium
white; chopped very fine
; chocolate, by hand (about
1
; 1/8 cups)
One fourth cup Light corn syrup

Put chocolate in a dry wide metal bowl that fits snugly over a 3 to
4quart saucepan. Fill saucepan halfway with 120F. water and immediately
set bowl over water. Let chocolate stand undisturbed 15 minutes, or until
melted. Stir chocolate just until smooth and remove bowl from pan.

Add corn syrup to chocolate and stir with a rubber spatula until mixture
thickens and forms a dough. Halve dough and wrap each half in plastic wrap.
Let white chocolate leather stand at room temperature until it firms to
consistency of clay, about 1 hour and up to overnight, depending on
temperature of kitchen. If your kitchen is very warm, leave leather in a
cooler place but do not refrigerate. If leather becomes too firm to roll
out, try to knead leather in your hands until malleable. If leather is
still too firm, microwave at 50% power to 2 to 5 seconds, or until just
soft enough to roll out.

Makes two 4 1/2ounce pieces.
