Notes

This recipe originally called for Rockwood Chocolate Mint Wafers, and was wonderful too, with Rockwood rum chocolate wafers ... or Rockwood mild chocolate wafers. Unfortunately, the Rockwood Chocolate Factory is long gone, and nobody makes them anymore. Andes Mints are the best substitution.
