Dad's Irish Coffee

Recipe #65864 | 1 min | 1 min prep | add private note

Jul 1, 2003

This is a recipe my Dad invented that has brought my family many a pleasant winter evening. I have tried many different Irish coffees, this is by far the best ever. If you have a problem with caffeine you can substitute decaf coffee; or we have used 1/2 decaf and 1/2 regular grounds when making the coffee.

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1/4 fluid ounce Creme de Cacao
  • 1 1/2 fluid ounces Irish whiskey
  • coffee
  • whipped cream, canned,the dairy kind not the non-dairy whipped topping

Directions

  1. 1
    Pour enough Creme de Cacao in the bottom of a coffee cup to just coat the bottom of the cup.
  2. 2
    Add the Irish whiskey.
  3. 3
    Fill the cup with coffee leaving room for the whipped cream.
  4. 4
    Using a swirling motion, top the coffee with whipped cream.

Wonderful beverage to unwind with. Must relax and savor this with a good friend. I ground my aribica coffee beans and made a pot of coffee. Substituted Creme de Cacao with Godiva's Chocolate Cream Liqueur, added a splash of Irish whiskey (who measures whiskey?)and added a large dollop of fresh whipped cream with sugar.Slurp this through the whipped cream.

    I'm not a coffee drinker but I decided to make this for friends. And the crowd went wild!!!! I made copies for everyone and they said be sure to thank Dad for sharing this. (Since I'm not a coffee drinker, how about posting some more recipes for me to try? Huh? Pretty please?? With sugar on it???
