These squares are outstanding! They do take a little time, but they are so worth it. All my tasters went totally wild over them. They taste even better from the freezer. Thanks, HD.

Make the Fudge Squares
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix crust ingredients together in the order listed. Press two-thirds of the dough into a lined 9x13-inch (20x30-centimeter) pan. Freeze remaining dough (approximately one cup). Bake for 10 minutes or until just set. Remove from oven.
-
Meanwhile, prepare the fudge layer: Melt together margarine, oil, cocoa, coffee, and sugars in a small pot over low heat, whisking occasionally. Add chocolate and stir together until well combined.
-
Remove from heat. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking mixture thoroughly after each addition to achieve a fudgy consistency. Pour over baked crust and bake for seven minutes.
-
Remove from oven and grate frozen dough over the fudge layer. It’s important to do this directly over the pan and not into a bowl, using a hand grater to achieve the small strip look, instead of a simple crumb look. Work quickly so the dough doesn’t get soft.
-
Return pan to oven and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool before cutting. Sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar before serving, if desired.
Note:
These freeze beautifully.

Sandwich Fudge Squares
Delicious!
They were quite simple to make and I loved the gooey chocolate texture. I added just a bit of chocolate liqueur which gave it a very rich flavor. -
Sandwich Fudge Squares
Margarine
How many sticks of margarine does 2.5 oz come out? Don’t have a kitchen scale. Mine just broke and didn’t have a chance to get a new one...Replies:
One ounce is about 2 tablespoons. -
Sandwich Fudge Squares
Piece-y insteady of runny?
I made these delicious squares for Succos and it was such a hit so I decided to make it again. When working on the fudge over the flame I encountered a problem - the fudge wasn't a liquid consistency once I poured all the ingredients in; it became piecey. I tried again pouring in one ingredient at a time and had a smooth consistency until I got to the sugar. I tried pouring it in super slowly and stirring constantly but it became piecey even with just a bit of sugar added.(The vanilla sugar went in fine.) Any ideas why this is happening - why the sugar is making the consistency piecey instead of runny?Replies:
I also made these (and they are really delicious). The fudge ingredients were always "piecey", until I added the eggs, I whisked them in one at a time and it all came together just fine.
The texture will be "piecey" but once you add in the eggs one at a time and whisk between each egg, it should become smooth and runny. -

Sandwich fudge cookies
I made these for Shabbos. They were very easy to make, with a really pleasing texture, and not too sweet. Everyone enjoyed them. I will, bli neder, make these again!! -

Crowd Pleaser!
Enjoyed by all guests, and someone commented that they were bakery caliber. I loved the subtle coffee edge to the chocolate filling.
