Using the spoon again, but this time right side up, slowly top off the glass with a layer of Irish cream. Be careful to place the spoon right at the top of the coffee liqueur layer and to raise it as the glass fills up. Done correctly, this will provide a layer of Irish cream floating over the coffee liqueur.
