Dark and Stormy Skrewball Cocktail
|
A delicious cocktail recipe I dreamed up during an evening thunderstorm that combines the wonderful flavors of Skrewball peanut butter flavored whiskey with Kahlua rum and coffee liqueur. I paired this with a slice of grilled pound cake, topped with a dollop of peanut butter whiskey infused whipped mascarpone cream and some of our Unicoi Preserves Strawberry Vanilla Spread.

Instructions
Dark and Stormy Skrewball Cocktail
-
Place 2 ounces of Skrewball Whiskey into a cocktail shaker. Add 1 ounce Kahlua Liqueur and shake to combine. Place a single large cocktail ice cube into an old fashioned cocktail glass. Pour cocktail over ice cube and serve immediately.
Skrewball Mascarpone Whipped Cream
-
Combine mascarpone cheese, whipping cream, powdered sugar and Skrewball whiskey in a clean, medium sized mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip until soft peaks form. Cover and refrigerate until needed, up to 2 days ahead.
Prepare Pound Cake
-
Preheat cast iron or non-stick skillet on medium heat. Cut pound cake into 3/4 inch thick slices and butter both sides of the cake slices evenly. Toast each side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from pan and place on dessert plate. Alternatively, you can toast the buttered pound cake slices on your grill. Grill over direct heat, 2-3 minutes a side to toast the cake and allow grill marks to form.
Prepare and Serve
-
Top each slice of grilled pound cake with a dollop of Skrewball mascarpone cream and a spoonful of Unicoi Preserves Strawberry Vanilla Spread. Serve alongside Dark and Stormy Skrewball cocktail. Enjoy!
