Gobs
Gobs contain a filling with a buttery flavor and sweet but not sugary impression. To make the filling solid allow the flour mixture to cool to refrigerator temperature and ensure the margarine and Crisco are solid during preparation.



Filling

Start Here
Mix 5 Tablespoons of flour with 1 cup Milk and boil to a thick smooth paste. Let Cool
Prepare the chocolate shells while the paste cools.

Cream Together

1 cup Conf sugar
1/2 cup margarine (don't melt the margarine)
1/2 cup Crisco (don't melt)
1t vanilla
1/4t salt

Add bottom mixture by the tablespoon to the top mixture.

Notes

It is more time efficient to make a double batch at a time. Gobs freeze nicely and will store in the refrigerator for quite a while anyway. Gobs are better if you make a triple batch of filling for a double batch of shells
