A quick easy dessert special I came up with years ago

Back in my 20's I was a chef.  I used to play around with all sorts of different ideas.  Part of my responsibilities were to come up with specials outside of the menu to use during different seasons.  I came up with this one in the fall, but it works in the winter time too.  It is absolutely delicious and if you are cooking for a date it is an easy one to pull off and make yourself look like a Master in the kitchen.

What I did here was take coffee cookies and soaked them in Baileys liquor.  Next I took apples and sautéed them in butter after slicing them roughly.  I added apple juice, brown sugar and cinnamon and I made kind of a caramel syrup.  I used a garnish of a cinnamon stick and mint leaves.  I often would serve this with coffee ice cream and I would drizzle the caramel on top.  The ice cream went great with the baileys and caramel.  Bon apatite
