Recipe
Preparation
*Bailey's Original Irish Creme gets its flavor from a blend of Irish whiskey and fresh cream, which is delivered daily to the Dublin plant that makes the liqueur. This dessert is packed with chocolate and rich flavor. Using all semisweet chocolate will yield a deeper, darker fudge.
FUDGE: Melt all chips with butter until they are soft enough to stir smooth. Do not overheat. Add chocolate/butter mixture to powdered sugar and Baileys. Stir until smooth. Add nuts, if desired. Mix well.
Place fudge in an 8-inch square pay sprayed with vegetable spray. Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on top and gently press to smooth fudge.
TOPPING: Melt chips until smooth. Remove from heat. With a fork, beat in butter and Bailey's until smooth.
Spread topping over fudge with a knife. If a very smooth top is desired, use a piece of plastic as done on fudge.
Refrigerate until firm, 1 to 2 hours. Can be frozen. Makes 64 pieces.

Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eating
In planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
Some reduced carb diet pointers:
* Use splenda instead of sugar.
Many recipes that need sugar can be changed to make use of a sugar replacement instead. It is not exactly the same so you will need to do a bit of trial and error and it might not work for every dish, but it does a decent job most of the time.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, onions and spring onions)
The alliaceae family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Although there is very little real proof published, allyl sulphides are also thought to aid in blood circulation, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss regime.
