Preparation
 
Fudge gets texture from potato: potatoes cooked in the microwave oven
give this fudge its unbelievably creamy, fudgey texture. The mellow
flavor comes from Irish Crem liqueur, used in both the fudge and the
icing. Use a pastry bag to pipe the icing or a spoon to drizzle it
onto the fudge. The added bonux is that this fudge is low in fat.

Line an 8x8x2-inch pan with foil. extending foil over the edges of
the pan. Butter foil; set the pan aside. Prick potato 2 or 3 times
witha fork. Cook on 100% power (High) for 4-5 minute sor until
tender, turning over once. Cool and peel. Mash potato (you should
have 1/3 cup). Add liqueur, stir until smooth. Set aside.

In a 2-quart microwave-save casserole combine chocolate and margarine;
cook, uncovered, on High for 1-2 minutes or until almost melted,
stirring once. Stir until smooth.

sugar. Stir or knead until smooth. Press into the foil-lined pan.
