Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons orange liquor optional
Instructions
- Butter and line an 8X8 inch pan with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl add the chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave for 2 minutes or until the chocolate is just melted. This timing is a based on my microwave which is 1200 Watts, so your cook time may very. (You can also make the fudge over a bain-marie)
- Once melted, stir to combine and whisk in the orange liquor and zest. Do not be tempted to over-mix the fudge as this can cause it to separate.
- Transfer the fudge to the prepared tin, smooth out the top then garnish more orange zest.
- Allow to set in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours to overnight.
- Remove from the fridge and cut into 16 squares. Cover and store in an airtight container for up to 4 weeks.
