Not For The Wee Lass...

If you are as obsessed with coffee as I am...this is the dessert for you! It is surprisingly refreshing but decadent at the same time. This is a great dessert to serve at a dinner party that will impress your guests. It is different, it is elegant, it is alcoholic, and it is good! I first tried coffee jello at a Japanese restaurant and it was so unique and delicious that I created this recipe. Enjoy!




1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1 tbsp. instant coffee
1 Tbs brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup milk
1/3 cup Baileys Irish Cream
2 tbsp. Irish whiskey
1/2 cups whipping or heavy cream

In small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand 1 minute. Stir over low heat until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 3 minutes. Stir in instant coffee and cocoa until dissolved. In blender, process milk, sugar and whiskey and Irish cream. While blending, gradually add gelatin mixture through feed cap and cream until blended. Pour into dessert dishes and chill until set, about 2 hours. Garnish with whipped cream, a sprinkle of cocoa powder and/or cinnamon and a pirouline cookie!
