Irish Coffee Cream Sauce

In addition to my related recipe of Irish Chocolate Cream Sauce, posted in a separate recipe, this sauce for dessert (cake, ice cream, tarts, etc.) is one based on a coffee flavour and is equally delightful with a compatible dessert. It uses Irish Cream Liqueur.

• Ready In: 10 mins
• Yields: 3 cups

Ingredients

• 1  cup brown sugar, golden
• 1⁄4 cup water
• 2 1⁄2 cups coffee, freshly brewed
• 1⁄4 cup irish cream, Liqueur

Directions

1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the sugar and water to a boil, whisking constantly. Cook for 3 - 5 minutes or until mixture is syrupy.
2. Whisk in the coffee and cook 3 - 5 more minutes or until the sauce thickens.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the liqueur.
4. Serve hot over any dessert.
