In a small saucepan, combine powdered sugar, cream, butter, cocoa, and chocolate. Place over low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until chocolate melts and sauce is smooth and glossy, 3 to 5 mins. Remove from heat and stir in amaretto and chocolate liqueur. Let cool to room temperature.

NOTES : Try varying the liqueurs to suit your taste. If you want it non-alcoholic, leave out the liqueur and substitute ¼ cup of strong coffee.
