"I'm a big fan of Kahlua and love this served over bread pudding. In fact, as Emeril would say "this would be good served on a bumper"."

Questions & Replies

  1. Will this sauce keep in the refrigerator for a few days. If so, should it be rewarmed before serving?

  1. This sauce is a winner! I used it as a topping for a plain chocolate cake but it would be delicious on ice cream. I needed to make it ahead so was worried that it wouldn't hold in the refrigerator but it held up and reheats just fine. Just needs a little whisking .
     
  2. Simple and scrumptious - this is fantastic on bread pudding but it's also pretty darn good on a spoon. The second time I made it, I used salted caramel kahlua. I bet it would be good on ice cream, too. I made it ahead of time but covered it with Saran Wrap to prevent a skin from forming.

  3. Made this this versatile sauce to put over chocolate chip/Kahlua banana bread. It was wonderful and easy. I plan to use this over bread pudding, ice cream , chocolate cake. Definitely a keeper.
     
  4. This is an absolutely easy and delicious sauce. I serve it with Tiramisu; either drizzle it over the Tiramisu or drizzle the sauce on the plate before serving. Thanks for sharing.
     
  5. This cream sauce is spectacular! I halfed the recipe to serve along with strawberry crepes.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Living in the south we are very lucky to have an abundance of fresh seafood and other ingredients at our disposal when trying new recipes. My husband and I both love to cook and have learned a lot about cooking from our native Louisianian, Paul Prudhomme (we learned to be very careful with his recipes as they are very spicy - even for us), native New Orleanian, Frank Davis and transplanted Emeril Lagasse. It would be very difficult to pick an all time favorite cookbook since I have approximately 200. I enjoy collecting local cookbooks as well as others from different areas. This picture is obviously when DH and I got married. I cooked all the food and even made my wedding cake.
