Irish Cream Double Chocolate Truffle Fudge

Ocean~Ivy's Note:

I found this recipe a while ago and decided to share. It is so rich--the recipe originally called for nuts, but honestly you do not need them. This fudge is heavenly and besides, not everyone likes nuts. Of course you may add them by stirring in the fudge mixture or pressing into topping. I hope you enjoy! 8)

So very yummy! Make sure you cut the squares small though, as it is very rich too.
