Place remaining 3/4 cup butter, chicken liver mixture, heavy cream, thyme, and allspice in a food processor; blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in currants and orange liqueur. Season pate with salt and pepper.

Divide pate among small ramekins. Refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours.

If you leave out the currants, be sure to still add the orange brandy to the mix.
