A 10 minute super easy Microwave Baileys Chocolate Fudge recipe... rich and delicious! The perfect gift for a friend (or sneaky late night treat!).
Can I just say that I'm so glad you're here... because this Microwave Baileys Chocolate Fudge is going to blow. your. mind.
It's super rich, soft and chewy... and oh-so-damn delicious. Yep, it's totally going to become your new favourite fudge!
But first let me tell you why you really need to make my Microwave Baileys Chocolate Fudge:
a) it's made in the microwave so it's E.A.S.Y;
b) it takes 10 minutes to prepare (which is nothing!!);
c) it's flavoured with Baileys (enough said).
And let's face it - anything that has Baileys AND chocolate in it, is guaranteed to be delicious!!!
This Microwave Baileys Chocolate Fudge makes a really lovely foodie gift for a friend (I made a few batches of this last Christmas). But it makes an equally as delicious late night treat for yourself.
Oooh and be warned... this fudge is super rich, so you only need a small(ish) piece. Mind you, I say 'smallish', but I'm pretty sure I ate about 10 'smallish' pieces!!!).
Enjoy! xx
PS. If you've got some leftover Baileys, why not try my Malteser Baileys Cheesecake or my Baileys Tim Tam Balls!?

Kathleen says
I was wondering if the microwave baileys chocolate fudge freezes??
Lucy says
Hi Kathleen, it does (it will stay relatively soft so you can actually eat it straight from the freezer!)
Sandra says
Really good recipe, and very easy to make. I was finding it difficult to cut because it was very sticky. I found that if you put it in the freezer for about an hour it is much easier to cut.
Lucy says
Great tip!
Amy says
Hi there, if I was wanting to use Baileys Strawberries & Cream, can I sub the dark chocolate for white chocolate or would it not set with white choc?
Lucy says
That's a great idea and should be fine! YUM!
Cassie says
Hello,
This recipe looks great! Just a quick question, which sort of butter do you recommend? (salted, unsalted etc. etc.)
