Everything Nice (spiced rum coffee with butterscotch whipped cream)

I saw some fun cocktail ideas online and this one caught my eye - not the drink but the butterscotch whipped cream...yum! Here's the whole recipe if you're interested, I'm not a rum coffee fan but I will 100% be making the flavored whipped cream as soon as I get some Carnation dry milk. 

  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 T. malted milk powder, such as Carnation
  • 1 1/2 T. dark brown sugar
  • tiny pinch kosher salt
  • 6 oz. hot black coffee
  • 2 oz. spiced rum
  • 1 T. simple syrup*
  • freshly grated nutmeg, for garnish (optional)
Directions:

Combine heavy cream, malted milk powder, brown sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Beat using a whisk attachment until dry ingredients are evenly incorporated and cream forms soft peaks.

Combine hot coffee, spiced rum, and simple syrup in a prewarmed mug. Using a spoon, follow whipped cream on top of the coffee and top with grated nutmeg if desired. 

to make simple syrup, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar with 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved. Any extra can be stored in the fridge up to 3 months.
