Ingredients
Old Forester 1897
Kentucky- Sharp at first, but softens quickly, with hints of oak, sweet corn and rye grain character. Spicy, with soft vanilla and light orange notes. It ends with a kick of heat, but it would be disappointing if it didn't.
Heavy Whipping Cream
Popcorn Chicken Nugget
Maple Syrup
Brown Food Coloring
Gelatin
Pancake Flavoring
How it’s made…
Here is what we did
Bloom gelatin and stir
Heat 1 cup heavy whipping cream over medium heat
Add 2 tbsp maple syrup and 3 drops of pancake flavoring, stirring thoroughly
Add 1-2 drops of brown food coloring, stir
Take off the heat and add 1/2 cup of Old Forester 1897 Bottled in Bond and stir
Spray non stick on the mold and blot off excess non stick spray
Pour mixture into mold, removing any air bubbles by poking with a toothpick
Refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours
Carefully remove from mold
Top with your choice of popcorn chicken and maple syrup and enjoy!
There’s no sense sitting around waiting for the gelatin to get firm.
Make yourself a cocktail while you wait for the gelatin to sit.
