Thank you Tom, but if I send you a bottle won't I get into trouble...........and there is just something about prison that sends shivers up and down my spine.............NO THANK YOU not for this Lady

Ive made that as well....I used to make tons of xmas goodies too for all my friends and family.........

Xmas has not been xmas for the last 3 years....

Snuggles....sorry I just got back to my computer and saw your request for the recipe....so here goes.

1 cup light cream
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 2/3 cup Irish Whiskey
1 teaspoon instant coffee
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend at high speed for 30 seconds. Place in a tightly sealed bottle and refrigerate.

We have been known to use cheaper whiskey than Irish...and it still turns out good. And depending on prefrence we also have been known to increase the whiskey up to double per batch. The year I put this in christmas baskets, I made it stored it in the refrigerator until just before I was going to deliver the basket. I was able to find a bunch of small battles with corks at the dollar store to put it into. YUMMY!

i can suggest candied nuts and brandied fruit and of course frozen strudel or frozen lava cakes....

i have also enjoyed receiving homemade sherry and homemade pickles

ahhhhhhhh Gypsy email me your address and I will send you a Christmas basket


Suggestions are great keep them coming please

Snuggles: I made these for Christmas gifts one year and got rave reviews. I think everyone appreciates homemade gifts.

I would also suggest putting bean soup ingredients as well as your favorite cookie/bar ingredients along with the recipe in a jar. By doing this, it allows the recipient to make the treat at his/her convenience. Happy Cooking :-)
