Method
 

  1. Gather all ingredients and equipment before starting.
  2. Pour 0.5 ounces peanut butter schnapps into a shot glass as the base layer.
  3. Carefully layer 0.5 ounces butterscotch schnapps over the back of a bar spoon to float on top.
  4. Slowly layer 0.5 ounces chocolate liqueur over the spoon to create a third distinct layer.
  5. If desired, gently top with 0.25 ounces Bailey's Irish Cream using the spoon to form a creamy cap.

Notes

For best results, keep bottles chilled and pour slowly over a spoon to maintain distinct layers. Serve immediately for maximum visual impact.
