So Good, It'Ll Make You Slap Yo' Momma Kahlua - cooking recipe

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\")
Preparation
    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.
    Then reduce to medium low or low heat... simmer, just below a boil.
    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.
    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.
    Remove from heat.
    About a half hour later and before liquid cools completely, add vanilla to mix.
    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.
    You should yield about 11/2 liters, just short of filling a 1/2-gallon liquor bottle.
