Perhaps I'm spoiled by more traditional fudge recipes but, like other reviewers, I was less than pleased with the consistency of this. Just not as creamy as it should be. I, too, threw it out. While this is easy to make, I guess you get out of something what you're willing to put into it. True fudge takes a bit more effort, but yields far better results.

YUM! This is really very easy, and the results are super impressive! Instead of all semi-sweet, I used half-and-half milk chocolate and semi-sweet. It was still very rich, but that just made you happy with a smaller piece! (But that doesn't mean you can resist going back for another piece in a few minutes...). **One note: This was very boozy (but good!) the first day, but I think the flavor mellowed a little as it sat; try to make it a day ahead (if you can resist).

Oh this is the best. I read the previous reviews about how this was too strong, so I started out with 3/4 of a cup. The only problem I ran into with this reduced amountn of liquid was the inability to stir the fudge at all! So I added the remaining 1/4 of a cup. I didn't find this too strong.. guess it is personal preference. I am sure this will go over well at tomorrow's St. Patrick's Day party at work. Yes it does make more than an 8X8 pan. I also filled a loaf pan with the fudge. I lined both pans with foil and when the fudge was set, it was easy to cut.. just remove from pan lifting the foil.. and slice. Easier than trying to cut in the pan.

Yum! Yum! This recipe makes plenty for an 11x17 pan. Use a bigger pan, cut it into more pieces; maybe it will last longer!

Fantastic! My modifications: I used 3/4 cup Bailey's and 1/4 cup heavy cream, and I and subsituted 2 tbspsoons butterscotch schnapps for half of the Irish cream in the topping. I also changed the ratios of the topping...I did 1 cup white chocolate chips and 1/2 cup semi-sweet, which made it stand out more without going all-white. It set in the freezer in less than an hour and the people at the dinner party I attended devoured it. It was easy to make, easy to transport, and required no serving dishes, but still impressed people--what could be better?

Very tasty... However I would make some changes next time I make it. First, I would use a 9x12 as opposed 8x8 - these were way too tall to cut through w/o the top layer breaking off. Secondly, I would definitely line my pan with foil instead of buttering it - so, so, so much easier to get out of pan (and a cxlean pan to boot.

This is the best chocolate fudge I've ever had. I will definately be making this again and again. Everyone I fed it to loved it as well. The only problem is that the recipe called for an 8x8 pan when I think it should have been a 9x13 pan. The fudge was so full in the pan that is was really really hard to cut and get out. Next time, I will try it in the larger pan.

Delicious! Made this for the holidays and it disappeared fast....people just kept eating and eating! The only problem I had was using the 8X8 dish, which resulted in a very thick fudge. I had problems with it breaking and ending up wasting a lot when cutting it. Next time, I'll try a 9X9 dish. Great recipe, very addictive!

Everyone raved about this fudge, but I did make some alterations to the recipes. I decided to keep the white chips separate (to make the fudge look nicer) so I used 4 cups chocolate chips for the base layer and 2 cups white chips for the topping. I also didn't add nuts at all. It does make more than a 8x8" pan...I used a 9x11" and it was a good inch thick still. Nice holiday treat.
