As I promised when I showed you a small (read: minuscule)
portion of my recipe postcard collection, I tried the recipe for Plastered Hot Fudge Sauce. If
you have never made hot fudge sauce before, this is the recipe to start with
because it is easy and so good! I used the called for Jack Daniels, but my
guess is that you could use the spirit of your choice, e.g. brandy, scotch, or
bourbon, or a favorite liqueur like Kahlúa, Amaretto, or even Grand Marnier for
a luscious orange and chocolate combination. This is delicious over ice cream,
orange sherbet, or pound cake, and a tasty dip for fresh fruits like
strawberries, raspberries, or bananas. Easy, delicious, and with a hint of
booze, what’s not to like?
Plastered Hot Fudge Sauce
From page 179 of Jack Daniel’s The Spirit of Tennessee Cookbook
1 c. granulated sugar
3/4 c. unsweetened cocoa, sifted
1 t. instant coffee granules (I used espresso powder)
Dash of salt
2 T. Jack Daniel’s Whiskey
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup butter
Combine sugar, cocoa, coffee, and salt in a medium saucepan. Mix Jack Daniel’s Whiskey with cream; add to sauce and whisk until sauce is smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. When sugar has dissolved, add butter and cook until thickened, about five minutes. Serve warm. Makes 2 cups.

What a great idea. I don't like "whiskey" but I do like it in desserts, and I love brandy and Kahlua. I hope you dug into it after your photo. (I would have to!)
ooo, lord have mercy...this looks sooo good...I just this morning am going thru Pinterest looking for a good something to make and put in jars with cute labels for my Bunco friends.....wonder how long it would stay good in a jar in the fridge...??
