Bailey's Truffle Fudge Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
AMERICAN MEASUREMENTS
3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup vanilla chips or more chocolate chi, ps*
1/4 cup butter
3 cup powdered sugar
1 cup bailey's irish creme
1/2 cup chopped nuts, optional
TRUFFLE TOPPING
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup vanilla chips or more chocolate chi, ps*
2 tbsp butter, cut in pieces
4 tbsp bailey's irish creme
Recipe Preparation
*Bailey's Original Irish Creme gets its flavor from a blend of Irish
whiskey and fresh cream, which is delivered daily to the Dublin plant
that makes the liqueur. This dessert is packed with chocolate and
rich flavor. Using all semisweet chocolate will yield a deeper,
darker fudge.
FUDGE: Melt all chips with butter until they are soft enough to stir
smooth. Do not overheat. Add chocolate/butter mixture to powdered
sugar and Baileys. Stir until smooth. Add nuts, if desired. Mix well.
Place fudge in an 8-inch square pay sprayed with vegetable spray. Lay
a sheet of plastic wrap on top and gently press to smooth fudge.
TOPPING: Melt chips until smooth. Remove from heat. With a fork, beat
in butter and Bailey's until smooth.
Spread topping over fudge with a knife. If a very smooth top is
desired, use a piece of plastic as done on fudge.
Refrigerate until firm, 1 to 2 hours. Can be frozen. Makes 64 pieces.

The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.

* Replace sugar with splenda. Most recipes that require sugar can be changed to make use of splenda instead. It has a different density so you will have to expirement with it and it may not work for every recipe, but it gives very good results once you get the measurements right.
