REFRIGERATE KAHLUA RECIPES

Steps:

• Line a 9-in. square pan with foil; grease foil with 1 teaspoon butter. In a large heavy saucepan, cook and stir white chocolate over low heat until melted. Add milk and remaining butter; stir until blended. Remove from heat; stir in pecans and Kahlua., Spread into prepared pan. Refrigerate, covered, 2 hours or until firm. Remove foil; cut fudge into 1-in. squares. Store between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Make cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350° and line 2 cupcake pans with cupcake liners. In a large bowl, whisk together cake mix, eggs, oil, coffee, and Kahlúa. Fill each cup about ¾ full and bake until a toothpick inserted into middle of each cupcake comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let cool.  Meanwhile, make ganache filling: Place chocolate chips in a medium heat-safe bowl. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat heavy cream until it bubbles. Pour cream over chocolate chips and let sit 5 minutes. Add Kahlúa and a pinch of salt and whisk until smooth. Refrigerate while you make frosting. Make frosting: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter until light and fluffy. Add about half the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt and beat until no lumps remain. Add heavy cream, Kahlúa, and vanilla and beat until smooth, then add remaining powdered sugar and beat until combined. Transfer frosting to a large piping bag fitted with a large, open-star tip. Scoop out a heaping teaspoon from each cupcake to create a well, then spoon Kahlúa ganache into cupcake wells.  Pipe frosting on top and garnish with chocolate and gold sprinkles.
