How to use up leftover Kahlúa

Tipsy brownies. Add a dash or two of Kahlúa to a basic brownie recipe along with a handful of chopped walnut halves.
Espresso martini. Mix equal parts Kahlúa and vodka with a shot of espresso and a small dash of sugar syrup. Shake over ice, then strain into a glass to serve.
Affogato. Scoop good quality vanilla ice cream into small serving bowls, pour over a shot each of Kahlúa and strong coffee, then crumble over amaretti biscuits for a fuss-free Italian-style dessert.
