So Good, It'll Make You Slap Yo' Momma Kahlua

Total Time: 3 hrs Cook Time: 3 hrs

Ingredients

• 6 cups coffee (48 oz total)
• 4 1/2 cups sugar
• 1/8 cup milk chocolate chips
• 1/8 cup real vanilla extract (accept no substitute)
• 750 ml of cheapest 80 proof vodka (one "fifth") or 750 ml rum (one "fifth")

Recipe

• 1 mix coffee, sugar and chocolate in a saucepan. over medium high heat, bring mix to a boil, making sure to dissolve all of the sugar into the liquid.
• 2 then reduce to medium low or low heat… simmer, just below a boil.
• 3 periodically raise heat long enough for the mix to boil, then reduce heat. stir frequently, making sure to loosen all sediment, especially in the "corners" of your pan. i start at thirty minutes and let the intervals between stirring become shorter as the cooking process lengthens. towards the end, remember that a watched pot never boils over, and with as much sugar as this mix has, that's a good thing.
• 4 reduce liquid level until bubbles do not want to break when raised to a boil. droplets falling off spoon should be like thick syrup. the mix should be reduced by approximately 50% from its original level in your pan.
• 5 remove from heat.
• 6 about a half hour later and before liquid cools completely, add vanilla to mix.
• 7 after liquid has cooled, roughly another half hour later, add vodka and mix to an even consistency. i have found that a whisk works best.
• 8 you should yield about 1½ liters, just short of filling a ½-gallon liquor bottle.
