Strawberry Daiquiri Fudge

4 cups chocolate chips or 5 cups white chocolate (I tried both. I like white)

• 4 tablespoons butter

• 1 can sweetened condensed milk

• 1/2 cup crushed strawberries (reserve juice) Hint: 1 tablespoon sugar mixed in before you crush will bring out more juice.

• 1 tablespoon lime juice

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• 2 oz spiced rum (to taste)

Butter an 8x8x2 inch pan. Line with wax paper or plastic wrap. Drain strawberries reserving juice. Combine strawberry, lime and lemon juice, with rum – mixing well.

In a double boiler* - melt chocolate, butter, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Be careful not to burn. Add liquid 1 tablespoon at a time stirring after each. (more or less to your taste)

Remove from heat. Add crushed strawberries. Pour into pan. Cool. Tip: let cool outside of the refrigerator for 30 minutes so that no condensation mars the top. Refrigerate overnight. Remove from pan. Cut into pieces. Store in a covered container.
