Level choc with spatula. Cover choc with 2nd sheet of wrap same size as first Using a rolling pin, roll chocolate into a rectangle 10 by 15 inches and 1/16 inch thick. Leaving choc still covered, set aside at room temp for 30-45 minutes to prtially set. Repeat with remaining chocolate. When choc is partially set, it should be no longer wet by still very pliable. If still too wet to handle, let it sit for abt 5 mins more but do not allow to harden or it will be difficult to knead. Remove wrap from 1 sheet of choc Generously dust work surface with powdered sugar. Gather choc into a ball. If choc has dried out and cracks don't be concerned, choc will soften and come togther again after kneading. Knead it briefly, pressing it into sugar as you knead, until soft and not sticky. If it feels sticky, knead in little more sugar. The molding choc should feel soft and smooth.
