Liqueur-flavored Desserts

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

CAKES: Add Orange Brandy Cordial, Sour Cherry Vodka, or any of the
raspberry cordials to flavor chocolate cake; Hazelnut liqueur, Almond
Liqueur, or Coffee Liqueur to flavor sponge cakes; and, of course,
Orange Brandy Cordial to flavor orange cake. Almond Liqueur is a nice
touch in flourless chocolate cake recipes that call for almonds.  After
a cake has baked - and is still warm and still in the pan -  poke holes
across the top with a tester or toothpick. Pour about 2  ounces of
liqueur over and allow it to drip down into the cake. Don't  forget the
possibilities of flavoring frostings with liqueurs; adding  a little
Coffee Liqueur to chocolate, for example, makes a mocha  frosting.
BROWNIES: Infuse a batch of fudge brownies with Almond Liqueur
following the directions above for cakes.  PIES: Apple pie is better
than Mom's when you first toss the apples  in 1/2 cup Orange Brandy
Cordial, and berry pies of all persuasions  benefit from tossing the
berries in 1/2 cup Raspberry Vodka Cordial,  Raspberry Brandy Cordial,
or a blend of the two.  FRESH FRUIT: Everybody's favorite,
strawberries, takes on a new  dimension when macerated (soaked) for 2
hours in Orange Brandy  Cordial. For fruit compote, add a jigger of
Blackberry or Raspberry  (Vodka or Brandy) Cordial for every 6 cups of
fruit and top with a  generous dollop of Creme Fraiche.  Recipe by:
