300 g dark cooking chocolate (eg: Nestle Melts)
100 g dark eating chocolate
25 g copha, grated.


Fudge centre
1/4 cup condensed milk
1 tbs orange liqueur
a few drops of orange essence
1 tbs desiccated coconut
cocoa for dusting


Melt roughly chopped chocolate and grated copha. Stir well.
Place condensed milk, liqueur and orange essence into a small bowl. Add 1/4 cup of the melted chocolate mixture and stir well until the mixture becomes thick and "fudgy".
Carefully spoon just enough melted chocolate to cover the bottom of an ice cube tray. Top with approx. 1/2 tsp of the fudgy mixture. Spoon over a little more melted chocolate to encase fudge centre.
Refrigerate for 15-30 mins. Remove from tray and gently dust with cocoa.




Notes:
Store in the fridge.


Variations:
Milk and white cooking chocolate and eating chocolate can also be used. Be careful not to burn when melting.
