Melt all ingredients together in the top of a double boiler over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Transfer to decorative bowls and cover with plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator, tightly covered, for up to 1 month.
Variation: After removing from heat, stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons of your favorite liqueur. Try Grand Marnier, Amaretto or Chambord.
Suggestions: Spread onto shortbread or biscuits, heat and drizzle over ice cream or serve with fresh fruit.
