The first time I made MMF was a horrible experience because I used my hands (I didn't have a good mixer at the time) to knead and eventually ended up with "super glued" hands! Haha! Anyways, this recipe is pretty much the same one I follow, but if I could make a few suggestions?
1. Before melting, I like to add about 3/4 C. white chocolate chips to the MM (for white MMF).
2. Just before the MM is completely melted, I usually stir in the food coloring so I won't have to worry about kneading it in later, but ONLY if I'm making a base color fondant. If only a small amount of a certain color is needed, then I would just knead it in afterwards, like this recipe suggests.
