Kahlua Fudge Sauce

I spent the Saturday before Christmas making this chocolate sauce for Christmas gifts. After four hours I had 40 half pints! Next year I may try this one from Smitten Kitchen http://smittenkitchen.com/2011/12/peppermint-hot-fudge-sauce/

Kahlua Fudge Sauce

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 cup cocoa powder

Mix these three ingredients in a sauce pan with a whisk.

Add the following:

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup Kahlua or other coffee liqueur

1/2 cup butter

Heat over lowish heat stirring constantly. Once combined I whisk for a while for a smooth consistency. Bring to a hard boil; boil for 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and add:

3 teaspoons vanilla extract

Fill warm jars with sauce. Canning procedure hasn't been necessary; the jars seal themselves mostly. If not, well, that's just more for you.
