More

Why it works
Cream and vanilla make a neutral base that lets the spices of the liqueur come through.
Tip
Check the amount of gelatine for your brand. The sauce goes on at the end and contains alcohol.
To serve
A clear small glass with its amber layer of sauce.
Meet the liqueur

This recipe contains alcohol. Cooking does not remove it completely, so a dish made with liqueur should never be presented as alcohol-free.
