HAPPY ST PATRICK’S DAY FRI 17 MARCH – Make some Irish Cream
A Very Happy St Patrick’s Day to all our readers
Recipe: Irish Cream
By Kelli Foster From The Kitchn
With hints of coffee and chocolate, a good Irish creamer is luxuriously rich and just as much dessert as it is a drink. And as my mom was happy to attest to in a side-by-side match-up, it’s just like the Baileys tucked away in the back of the liquor cabinet. So, once you’ve had your fill of Shamrock Shakes, it’s time to set your sights on the festive liqueur you’ll want to keep around long after St. Patrick’s Day has passed.
Make It Just the Way You Like It
Irish Cream
1 1/2 cups Irish whiskey
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons natural unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend on low to medium speed until well-combined and the cocoa and espresso powders are dissolved, about 30 seconds. Do not overblend, or the cream with thicken. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Recipe Notes
- Make ahead: The Irish cream can be made up to 2 week in advance and stored in a covered container in the refrigerator.
