Epic Fail

See this recipe?  Looks easy, right?  I wanted to make something to bring to family and friends we are visiting this weekend.  First batch, the chocolate chips melted easily and everything was going swimmingly until I added the 3/4 CUP of water instead of teaspoon.  I wondered why it was so watery so I double checked after I had poured the batch into the pan.  Um, yeah.  Not supposed to be that watery.  So, even though I was now upset with myself for wasting $2 worth of chocolate chips, I attempted another batch.  And promptly burned the chocolate chips even though I put them in the microwave for 1/2 the time as the last batch.  So I have decided that homemade tootsie rolls will not be making the trip to Canada with us this weekend, although I will try them again as soon as I figure out a way to master melting chocolate without burning it.
