Ingredients




1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese at room temperature
2 pounds pkg. powdered sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar

Preparation

1 In a large bowl place cream cheese. Add powdered sugar a little at a time until it becomes very thick and heavy (the whole package of powdered sugar may not be needed). Work the mixture with your fingers, adding powdered sugar a little at a time until quite stiff. 2 Pinch off 1 teaspoon, roll between fingers to make a small ball. Place on a piece of foil, flatten to form a disk and allow it to dry. 3 Variations: 4 Fondant may be colored with food coloring added a drop at a time. 5 Fondant may be flavored with almond, mint or another flavor, a drop at a time. 6 For rubber candy molds: Dust clean molds with 1/4 cup granulated sugar before each use. Press in a small piece of fondant and release immediately onto a piece of foil. Allow to dry completely.
