An old proverb states that the quickest way to someone’s heart is through their stomach, and, in the case of our Orphan Girl Caramel Cream Truffles, it’s true! Show off your love and cooking skills for everyone special in your life this Valentine’s Day.
Ingredients
2 oz Orphan Girl Bourbon Cream Liqueur
9 oz Melting Caramels
2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Procedure
Add your Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips to a microwave-safe bowl. Melt them down, checking and stirring every 10 seconds to ensure chocolate does not burn. Take this chocolate and fill your silicon mold. Once full, turn your mold upside-down to allow excess chocolate to strain.
While the chocolate is straining, add your two shots of Orphan Girl Bourbon Cream Liqueur to a small stove-top pan. Turn the heat to low and allow to run until simmering. During this time, put your now-strained chocolate mold into the freezer and measure out your 9 oz of Melting Caramels. Similar to your chocolate, add the caramel to the microwave, checking it and stirring every ten seconds until loose. Once the Orphan Girl has started to simmer, add it to your caramel cream to create the filling of your Orphan Girl Caramel Cream Truffles.
Take your caramel cream and add it into a piping bag (or use a Ziplock bag with the tip cut off). When the caramel cream has cooled, pull your chocolate molds out of the freezer. Now, pipe your caramel cream into the chocolate molds. Put them in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Heat your Semi-Sweet Chocolate again and keep stirring to keep it loose as it cools. Pull your chocolate molds out of the fridge and top them off with more chocolate. Throw them back in the fridge.
Allow to cool for 20 more minutes before taking them out. Pop them out of the mold and enjoy!

A special twist on an early morning classic, our Headframe test kitchen created Pink Pancakes in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Ribbons of maple syrup swirl over fluffy pink pancakes topped with a dollop of Orphan Girl whipped cream. Delicious no matter what shape or size they turn out.
Pink Pancakes
1 cup Milk
1 large Egg
1 tbsp Melted Butter
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 tbsp Maple Syrup or Local Honey
1 cup Flour
1 tbsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 cup Beet Juice
Whipped Cream
1 cup Heavy Cream
3 tbsp Confectioners Sugar
2 oz Orphan Girl Breast Cancer Awareness
Procedure
To make your pancakes, blend together your Beet Juice, Milk, Egg, Butter, Vanilla Extract and Maple Syrup (or Local Honey) until fully combined.
Slowly mix in your Flour, Baking Powder and Salt to your mixture.
During this time, heat a stove top pan over medium-low heat adding Butter to the surface or a non-stick spray of your choice.
Once the pan is warm, add 1/3 cup of batter to the griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes or until small bubbles start to form on the top. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat for the remaining batter.
During this time, start on your Whipped Cream. Mix your Heavy Cream and Confectioners Sugar together until you see stiff peaks form. We would recommend doing this with a stand mixer or in a blender. Once stiff peaks have formed, slowly add in your Orphan Girl 1 oz at a time and blend constantly.
Serve up your Pink Pancakes with a dollop of Whipped Cream, adding any extra fruit or ribbons of maple syrup on top!

Just in time for the holidays, these gooey and sticky cinnamon rolls pair perfectly with a snow day. We add our Orphan Girl Bourbon Cream Liqueur for a creamy kick to top them off.
Dough
1 packet of Instant Yeast
2 ¾ cups of Flour
3 tbsp Sugar
½ cup Lukewarm Water
¼ cup Milk
2 tbsp Melted Butter
1 Egg
Filling
¼ cup Melted Butter
2 tbsp Cinnamon
¼ cup Brown Sugar
Glaze
1 cup Powdered Sugar
3 tbsp Melted Butter
1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
1 shot of Orphan Girl Bourbon Cream Liqueur
Pinch of Cinnamon
Procedure
In a bowl, start your dough by combining lukewarm water and yeast. Mix until you see bubbles and the yeast dissolves. Add your sugar, milk, egg and melted butter and mix. Slowly fold in the flour. Once combined, loosely cover the bowl of dough in plastic wrap and keep in a warm area of the kitchen for 2 hours or until the dough has doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Powder your working surface with flour. Take your dough and begin rolling it out into a rectangular shape.
Mix all of your filling ingredients in a bowl and spread evenly across the dough.
Take the long side of your dough and begin to roll, like a sleeping bag, the dough into itself. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough vertically to make small pucks – 2 inches thick. Once all your cinnamon rolls have been cut, place them on an oiled cookie sheet and in the oven for 15 minutes or until the dough is firm.
Combine your glaze ingredients into a bowl, saving the Orphan Girl Bourbon Cream Liqueur for last. Immediately pour your glaze over your warm cinnamon rolls and enjoy!
