How to prepare "cajun coffee"

cajun coffee

this is an old cajun recipe.

3 cups strong black coffee
1/4 cup molasses
1 cup cream, whipped
dash of nutmeg
rum (optional)

mix coffee and molasses and heat to a low simmer. stir to blend. divide mixture between 4 cups or heat-proof glasses. top with cream and a dash of nutmeg. the idea is to sip the coffee mixture through the cream, much like irish coffee. some cajuns like to mix a tablespoon of rum in with the coffee and molasses.
