If you’re interested in trying variations on this same recipe, simply swap out the Kahlua Coffee Liqueur with Baileys Irish Cream, Amarula Cream Liqueur, Carolans Irish Cream, Saint Brendan’s, or any flavored liqueur of your choice. I should also mention that the recipe is very flexible, so feel free to play around with the liquor depending on how strong you want that particular flavor note to be. As for the caramel chips, they can be substituted for white or milk chocolate chips.
