    It doesn’t have a recipe. It only tells what’s in it, sort of.. Not what kind or how much or how to…. Just a idea of what you can use.

    This recipe calls for dark chocolate. Is that semi-sweet or darker?

      Hi Donna,

      You can use semi-sweet chocolate for a more mellow flavored Tootsie Roll or use bittersweet chocolate if you prefer a more intense chocolate flavor. I do not recommend anything over 92% cocoa content, however. I personally used chocolate with 46% cocoa content and the candies tasted great. Enjoy!

    Oh my goodness, Beth! My granddaughter, Lydia, and my pa-in-law both are Tootsie Roll fiends! That you can make them with your own favorite chocolate bars is awesome and seeing that they will last for 3 months means I can make start making some Christmas candy now! Thanks for such a fun recipe. :o)
