The Novel Bakers are in Ireland again, this time we're looking at Home Made Winter,
a charming cookbook by Yvette Van Boven. I love all things Irish and go all out for St. Patrick's Day, so it isn't surprising that one recipe stood out:
Homemade Irish cream liqueur.
Homemade Irish Cream Liqueur
Yield: approximately 4 1/2 cups
3/4 cup heavy cream
1- 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
1 1/4 cups Irish whiskey * adjust to your preference
1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
Place ingredients in a blender. Don't over mix--just blend everything.
Pour liqueur into clean bottles and cap. Will keep 2 months in the
fridge--if it lasts that long.
There's so much mystique around liqueurs, I never dreamed of making it. But it was
a snap. The taste will put you over the moon.
We love Bailey's Irish cream over vanilla ice cream, but I wanted to try something different and served the liqueur over double brownie chocolate chip ice cream. It was ambrosial.
You can see the liqueur pooled around the ice cream.
Heavenly!
