Follow The Directions

01

Step

Chill a coupe or martini glass in the freezer for at least 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

02

Step

Fill a cocktail shaker generously with ice. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Add the crème de cacao, brandy, and heavy cream to the shaker. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is well-frosted. This ensures proper chilling and emulsification. (20 seconds)

05

Step

Strain the mixture into the chilled glass. (1 minute)

For an extra touch of elegance, garnish with a light dusting of freshly grated nutmeg.
Adjust the sweetness by adding a few drops of simple syrup, if desired.
Experiment with different types of brandy to find your preferred flavor profile.
To make it even more decadent, rim the glass with chocolate shavings.
Try using a high-quality white crème de cacao for a visually appealing and subtly different flavor.
