The wine pairing here will somewhat depend on what you’re pairing this sauce with. However, this sauce is truly decadent and regardless of the lucky dessert, a glass of bubbles will wash it down nicely!
White Chocolate Kahlua Sauce
This is the bigger sister to my Chocolate Kahlua Sauce recipe. This is bigger, bolder and even more decadent – for lovers of white chocolate only! The Kahlua gives it a gorgeous caramalised colour, but you can experiment with other liqueurs as well.

Ingredients
180 g white chocolate
⅛ cup full cream milk
⅛ cup heavy cream
3 tbsp Kahlua (or other flavoured liqueur)
Ingredients
6.50 oz white chocolate
⅛ cup full cream milk
⅛ cup heavy cream
3 tbsp Kahlua (or other flavoured liqueur)
Variations
Experiment with other liqueurs that you like – butterscotch and Baileys Irish cream would also work great here. Or, see my chocolate Kahlua sauce if you prefer a chocolate version.
To make this alcohol free, substitute the Kahlua with instant coffee: mix 1 teaspoon of instant coffee granules with 3 tablespoons of boiling water, and follow the recipe as described.
Directions
1
Make the sauce
1. Place the white chocolate and Kahlua in a large heatproof bowl.
2. Add the milk and cream to a saucepan and bring to a simmer.
3. Pour the hot cream and milk over the chocolate and stir until the chocolate has completely melted and there’s no lumps left.
Tip: The sauce can be made ahead of time and re-heated gently in the microwave. It will always be a thinner consistency when it’s hot, but will thicken up if left to stand for a few minutes.

Pour over dessert
Pour liberally over a dessert of your choice. This is delicious paired with chocolate mud cake, or as a dip with fresh strawberries and other fruit.
