    Source of Recipe


    The Complete Dessert Cookbook by Johna Blinn

    List of Ingredients




    8 semi-sweet chocolate squares
    3 tablespoons butter or margarine
    3/4 cup confectioners' sugar sifted
    1 tablespoon milk
    1 tablespoon light corn syrup
    1/3 cup candied fruit chopped
    1 teaspoon rum extract

    Recipe



    Melt 2 1/2 squares of chocolate with 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in saucepan over very low heat. Spread in bottom of waxed-paper-lined (bottom and sides) 9 x 5-inch loaf pan; chill until firm. Partially melt 3 squares chocolate over very low heat Remove from heat; stir rapidly until entirely melted.

    Add sugar, milk and corn syrup; beat until well blended. Stir in fruit and rum extract. Spread over chocolate layer in pan; chill until firm. Melt remaining chocolate and remaining butter in saucepan over very low heat Spread over fruited mixture; chill until firm. Cut into bars or squares; store in tightly covered container in refrigerator. Makes 32

    NOTE: To shorten chilling time, each layer may be chilled in freezer. Terrific to give as a gift at holidays!
