Line an 8 or 9″ square pan with foil; Place one piece, the width of the pan going in one direction, and a second piece, crossing over the first at right angles, extending foil over edges of the pan.

Stovetop Directions:

Add chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk to heavy saucepan over low heat. Stir gently and often. Remove from heat when chips are just melted. Stir in liquor. Spread evenly into prepared pan. Chill 2 hours or until firm. Remove from pan by lifting edges of foil. Cut into squares.

Microwave Directions:

Add chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk to a 1 quart glass measure. Cook on high for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir, Return to microwave and continue to cook for one-minute intervals, stirring after each, until the chips are melted. Remove from microwave and stir in liquor. Spread evenly into prepared pan. Chill 2 hours or until firm. Remove from pan by lifting edges of foil. Cut into squares.

Notes:

• You may have to really stir quite hard; this makes a chocolaty mass.
• Any type of chocolate chip or a combination works for this recipe
• Alternatively, rather than two hours in the fridge, the fudge may be cooled at room temperature for 8 hours and then chilled for an hour before cutting. The chill time helps to get a clean cut.
