Cappuccino Fudge Sauce

Combine half and half, coffee, spices and orange zest in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil, take off heat, cover and let stand 30 minutes. Return the mixture to high heat and again bring to a boil. Then strain through fine mesh into a measuring cup. Add half and half if needed to bring spiced mixture to 3/4 c. Put the mixture into a clean, heavy saucepan. Add the brown sugar and simmer, stirring constantly, until dissolved. Remove from heat Add chocolate and liquor and stir until melted and smooth (I left out the liquor and added 1 t. good vanilla). We quadrupled the recipe, it only makes about 12 oz. We then put it in hot jars and processed using a hot-water bath for 35 minutes. We're at 8000 foot altitude. Most people would need much less processing time (maybe 20 minutes?). If not processing, keep refrigerated.
