I use a basic white sauce recipe

11/2 oz butter

11/2 oz plain flour

1 pint milk

Melt butter in a saucepan over moderate heat

Add flour and beat until smooth ,remove from heat

Add milk, a little at a time,and beat well.

Bring to the boil and cook gently for 2-3 minutes,stirring all the time.

Mocha Add 1 tablespoon grated chocolate and 1/2 teaspoon coffee essence,than bring to the boil again for 2 minutes.

After making the plain sauce you can add any thing else to it .just a few ideas

Answer 6

Adding some corn syrup will prevent crystallization.

Instant coffee granules will give it a darker flavor.

A little ground cayenne will give it some zing without a real definable taste.

(ground cayenne in Peanut brittle is awesome.)
