INSTRUCTIONS
For chocolate sauce: Stir water and sugar in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to boil; 1 minute. Remove from heat. Mix in instant coffee granules. Add chocolate and whisk until melted and smooth. Stir in cream, vanilla and salt. Cool slightly. Transfer to 2-cup jars. Seal tightly. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead; refrigerate.) For butterscotch sauce: Preheat oven to 375F. Place pecans on cookie sheet. Toast until fragrant and just beginning to brown, stirring occasionally, about 12 minutes. Cool completely. Stir sugar and Scotch whisky in heavy medium saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to boil.
