Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a wide, shallow saucepan or small Dutch oven, combine the sifted cocoa, granulated sugar, butter, instant coffee granules, vanilla, cinnamon stick, and salt.
  2. Gradually whisk in the boiling water until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain.
  3. Place the saucepan over high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, whisking frequently.
  4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium to maintain a gentle simmer.
  5. Simmer the sauce, stirring often, for about 5 minutes or until it thickens and becomes glossy.
  6. The sauce should reduce to approximately 1 cup in volume.
  7. Remove the saucepan from the heat and discard the cinnamon stick.
  8. Allow the sauce to cool to room temperature before serving or storing.
  9. Store in a tightly covered jar in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Reheat gently before serving if desired.
