ents of Chef Roy Ellamar from Sensi at Bellagio Hotel & Casino

 2Qt        goat milk (quail hollow farms)

3cup      white sugar

1ea        whole vanilla bean, split open and seeds scraped out

1/2tsp   baking soda, dissolved in 1TBSP water     

1cup      fresh roasted coffee beans (Colorado River Coffee Roasters rosebud)

 Combine milk, sugar and vanilla in a heavy bottomed pot over medium high heat. Stir the mixture frequently until the sugar is dissolved and is simmering. At this point remove from heat and add the baking soda mixture, the mixture will bubble up quickly, do not be alarmed. Once the bubbles have subsided return the pot to the heat and keep at a lively simmer. Stir constantly with a rubber spatula as it begins to thicken, to not allow it to stick to the bottom of the pot. As the mixture begins to turn golden brown, add the coffee beans. Continue cooking and stirring, it will take a while, check for doneness by observing the consistency. We are looking for a medium thick consistency. Stick a spoon in it, lift the spoon out and hold it vertical with the back of the spoon facing you allow the sauce to drip off the spoon and observe. The sauce should coat the back of it nicely and leave a long unbroken strand or tail at the bottom of the spoon as it flows off.

 Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Strain the sauce through a fine strainer and scrape the vanilla bean into the cajeta.

 Store in a glass container and serve warm. You can add this to your morning coffee, your ice cream, or your favorite chocolate dessert. Be creative with it. Enjoy !
