Ingredients

Directions

  1. Chop the milk chocolate and plain chocolate into small, uniform pieces to ensure even melting.
  2. Place the chopped chocolate and instant coffee powder in a heatproof bowl.
  3. In a small saucepan, gently heat the cream, double cream, and 1/2 cup of milk (if available, otherwise use more cream) over medium-low heat until it begins to simmer; do not let it boil vigorously.
  4. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and coffee in the bowl. Let it sit undisturbed for 2 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.
  5. Gently stir the mixture with a whisk or spatula, starting from the center and working outward, until the chocolate is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and glossy.
  6. Stir in the Kirsch, Cointreau, Brandy, or Tia Maria until fully incorporated.
  7. Serve the chocolate cream warm over desserts, or let it cool to room temperature for a thicker consistency.
