Homemade Bailey’s Irish Cream

If you’re a Bailey’s Irish Cream fan, skip the bottled stuff and try making your own instead.  Just five ingredients and a blender, and in less than one minute you’ll be sipping your way to creamy Bailey’s bliss.

Pin it NOW to save it for later!

If you're a Bailey's Irish Cream fan, skip the bottled stuff and try making your own instead.  Just five ingredients and a blender, and in less than one minute you'll be sipping your way to creamy Bailey's bliss.

This post was originally published on February 24, 2012.  I’m updating it here to add new photos.

Last week, I was totally wasting time on the internet and Pinterest doing important research on St. Patrick’s Day and related food-stuff, and I stumbled onto a recipe for Homemade Bailey’s Irish Cream.

Yep, you heard me.  Homemade.  Bailey’s.  As in Irish Cream.  As in, be still my heart.

I was completely intrigued, which meant that I had to make it the very next day.  You know, for research purposes.  You know how I feel about homemade stuff–like eggnog, tortillas, summer sausage–typically you can’t go wrong with homemade anything, but I couldn’t imagine how this would turn out.  I figured it would be okay, maybe even good.  But fabulous?  I couldn’t see it.  Feeling like you’re swimming in a creamy chocolate heaven?  No way.

So I dumped the ingredients into the blender, and literally thirty seconds later, I had the absolute best Bailey’s Irish Cream I’ve ever tasted.  Ever.

If you like Bailey’s Irish Cream, you must make this right away.

You must.

I promise, you’ll thank me for it later.

And while you’re at it, use it to make these brownies!

And then invite me over. 🙂

    Apparently I was born yesterday because I HAD NO IDEA THEY MADE DARK CHOCOLATE SYRUP!?!?!?! Where HAVE I been?! I need that asap so I can make me some homemade Bailey’s and pretend I’m a bartender and stuff.

    Oh and Pinterest? Tooootally wonderful time-suck, thank you. Love it. And I’m following you now after some semi-stalking turned successful. And I still have those smothered burritos on my mind. I’ll stop being creepy now.

      I know, right?!? Dark chocolate syrup is the bomb!

      Pinterest is the greatest time-suck, that is for sure. Oh, and I’m following you right back. Don’t think I won’t totally be copying all of your yummy sweet-treats!!
