Jason Tanner had a recipe for Dave's Insanity Squares.  I made them, with the
exception of the Dave's.  I didn't have any, and I wasn't going to buy any
just for that recipe.  So I rummaged around the 'fridge and found a sauce that
I used instead.  btw Jason, I liked the recipe, but mine turned out a little
sticky (from the honey).  I will probably cut it down a little next time,
making up the difference with white sugar.  Anywat, the sauce I used was
Queen Nefertiti Hot sauce from Gourmet Foods of Cairo Inc.  The ingredients
are white vinegar, tomato paste, fresh garlic, HABANERO peppers,
bohar(Egyptian Spices), salt.  HEAT SCALE: 5 Pyramids
Their words, not mine.  I'd rate it about a 3 of 5.  Even though vinegar
is first, it is not very strong.  The bohar gives a cinnamon/clove/???
kind of flavor and aroma.  In a half batch, I used 2 teaspoons, and it was not
hot.  A wonderful flavor and smell mixed with the chocolate.
