Coffee Sauce
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup very strong brewed Original Blend coffee or Hazelnut coffee
3 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. In a medium, heavy saucepan, scald together the cream and coffee.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar for 8 to 10 minutes by hand or with the electric mixer until mixture is very thick and lemon-colored. Gradually beat in the warm coffee mixture.
3. Put the incorporated mixture into the saucepan and simmer over low heat, stirring until the mixture boils, and then thickens. Add in the vanilla.
4. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool slightly, then put the sauce into a glass bowl. Cover, and chill until the sauce is very cold. To serve, just spoon over brownies and serve.
