Day 5 Holiday Cookie List: Homemade Irish Cream
Knock off of Bailey's Irish Cream. It's delicious and guaranteed to warm you right down to your toes!
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup 235 ml heavy or whipping cream
- 1 14-ounce or 415 ml can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup 235 ml Irish whiskey (I used Jameson)
Instructions
- In the bottom of a pitcher, whisk cocoa powder and a spoonful of cream into a paste. Slowly, whisking the whole time, add more cream a spoonful at a time until the paste is smooth and loose enough that you can whisk the rest of the cream in larger splashes. Once all of the cream is in, whisk in condensed milk, whiskey and vanilla.
- Cover with lid or plastic wrap and keep in fridge for up to two weeks, possibly longer.
- Serve in a tiny tumbler filled with ice, or splashed into coffee.
Notes
This is not for the faint-hearted. Packs a nice punch. If you would like to make it a little less boozy, add heavy whipping cream and the condensed milk 1 tablespoon each at a time, until desired taste.
