INGREDIENTS
| 1 | c | Sugar |
| 1 2/3 | c | Extra strong coffee; at room temperature |
| 2 | tb | Cornstarch |
| 2 | tb | Unsalted butter |
| 1/3 | ts | Salt |
INSTRUCTIONS
Note: If you would like to serve this sauce chilled, omit butter and refrigerate after sauce has thickened. In a heavy skillet, melt the sugar slowly, stirring often, until the sugar is a light amber color, about 5 minutes. Slowly add 1 1/3 cups of the coffee, stirring constantly. Be prepared for a lot of steam. In a small bowl, blend the cornstarch and the remaining 1/3 cup of coffee until smooth. Stir the mixture into the hot coffee-sugar mixture. Continue cooking over low heat and stir until the sauce boils and thickens, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and salt until blended. Serve warm over ice cream.
