Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup powdered sugar (adjust to taste)
  • ¼ cup white rum

 Instructions:

  1. Blend It Up:
    In a medium bowl, whisk or blend cream cheese, sour cream, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the Kick:
    Stir in white rum until fully incorporated. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
  3. Chill (Optional):
    For a thicker texture, chill for 10–15 minutes before serving.
  4. Serve:
    Spoon generously over Floribbean French Toast, banana pancakes, or warm pound cake. Can also be used as a dip for fruit skewers or Johnny cake sticks.

 Chef’s Tip:

Balance the bold.
Use this sauce chilled for a thicker dip, or serve room temp for a pourable drizzle. Want to turn this into a dessert topping? Fold in a handful of whipped cream for a boozy mousse vibe — or spike your fruit salad with a spoonful.
