Ingredients:
1 cup freshly brewed strong coffee
1/4 cup bourbon
1 tablespoon Kahlua or other coffee-flavored liqueur
2 oz finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
6 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon sugar

Preparation:
Heat coffee, bourbon, Kahlua, chocolate, and 2 tablespoons cream in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan over low heat, whisking constantly, until chocolate is melted, about 1 to 2 minutes. (Do not let boil.)
Whisk remaining 1/4 cup cream with sugar until it holds soft peaks.
Divide coffee mixture between 2 large mugs, then top with whipped cream.
