Espresso spiced hot fudge sauce
Coffee
I've added coffee to chocolate in baking recipes to deepen the chocolate flavor, but I had never tried it in a chocolate sauce until now. To spice it up a bit I checked my spice drawer and found I had whole Tellicherry black peppercorns, cloves, coriander seeds, star anise, and cinnamon sticks so i decided to blend my own 5 spice powder. I heated the espresso and sugar with the spice powder before whisking in the chocolate. Adding a little softened butter at the end produced a rich velvety smooth sauce, and the spices added an interesting kick to an otherwise yummy hot fudge sauce. Serve it on vanilla or coffee ice cream. Yum!
