---------------------
According to the latest FAN newsletter, Hershey's is discontinuing the
practice of making milk-free chocolate available via mail order, due to
lack of consumer interest.  As a consolation to the milk-free community,
Hershey's has developed a recipe for milk-free chocolate you can make at
home:

One eight-ounce package Hershey's Unsweetened Baking Chocolate (broken
into pieces)
One-fourth cup plus one teaspoon of shortening
One-eighth teaspoon vanilla extract
Two cups confectioner's sugar
In medium bowl, microwave chocolate and shortening on high for
one-and-a-half to two minutes, until mixture is melted and smooth when
stirred.  Add vanilla extract.  Gradually stir in confectioner's sugar.
If mixture becomes too thick, knead with clean hands.  Spread out in
pan.  Cover tightly; refrigerate until firm.  Break into pieces.  Store,
well covered, in refrigerator.

I have not tried this recipe.  Has anyone else?
