Microwave mixture for a further 3-4 minutes on MEDIUM-HIGH/70% or until fudge is thick, golden and boils rapidly, stirring every minute with a wooden spoon. Carefully put the bowl on a board and set aside for 1 minute or until the bubbles subside. Add chocolate and stir until chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth. Stir in pistachios and liqueur. 4.
