Why melt chocolate? Why not use unsweetened chocolate powder?

I would imagine the cocoa butter content in the unsweetened chocolate
(I'd use chocolate liquor) makes for a richer fudge consistency. Cocoa
powder (is that what you mean by chocolate powder?) wouldn't help the
consistency of the fudge.

I use some real butter too.

Yup. I'd add some butter to the chocolate while it's melting, to
prevent it from siezing.

Hola,

Sounds like a nice recipe... a little bit like Goulash (chocolate and cream)

I think you mean 'ganache'. Goulash is an entirely different dish
(usually served over noodles).

Thanks, yes I meant Ganache, I had a "brain fart"

It's a little ceramic, round straight-sided pudding cup...think
souffle dish but in a mini size. Probably holds about 1-1.5 cups of
liquid.
