I want to make some of those buckeye cookies

, but the last time I used just plain almond bark, it was really thick and didn't go very far. So I'm wondering if you ladies know of a way to thin almond bark to an easier-to-work-with consistency (without using paraffin wax, which I did not see at Wal-Mart today

) and still have it harden at room temperature.
TIA and Merry Christmas.

I'm not sure about making it set in less time, but to thin use shortening. Like Crisco. Don't use water!!!

Thanks! I was thinking water, but I knew that just couldn't work.

Shortening it is!
