Happy Halfway Mark, friends! I hope your week has been fantastic so far, and I hope this email brings it up a notch. This week’s treats are holiday-inspired and tired mama-approved. A perfectly sweet Snickerdoodle Coffee Cake and the Holiday Mudslide of my dreams are here. Enjoy!
CHEERS!
Prepare this Holiday Mudslide for your next gathering, or cozy night in. It’s creamy, sweet, snappy, and topped with pretty holiday touches. Perfect.
Holiday Mudslide
Ingredients:
1 ounce vodka
1 ounce coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
1 ounce Irish cream liqueur (e.g., Baileys)
1 ounce peppermint schnapps
1 ounce milk or cream
Crushed ice
Chocolate syrup, chocolate chips or “kisses,” cranberries, or crushed candy canes (for optional garnish)
Instructions:
Add crushed ice to the glass.
In a shaker, combine the vodka, coffee liqueur, Irish cream liqueur, peppermint schnapps, and milk or cream.
Shake the mixture vigorously to combine and chill the ingredients, then strain the mixed ingredients into the glass over the ice.
Drizzle a little chocolate syrup on top of the drink and sprinkle some cranberries and/or chocolate chips for a festive touch.
YUM!
Can you picture it? Savoring every bite of that sweet cinnamon and sugar in a slice of warm coffee cake, sipping hot cocoa or coffee, cuddled up in pjs, robes, and blankies. . .
Yep. I need this.
