Have you checked the price of Bailey's Irish Cream lately, $30.00 a bottle on sale. Okay, so I still buy it on occasion. To be honest this home made recipe is just as good if not better. A friend gave me this recipe about 5 years ago. She is a liquor sales person, strange. You can make a big vat of this for $30.00, and it keeps refrigerated up to a month. Also makes a great gift.
Don't get all twisted about the eggs, the whiskey will cook them, much like lemon juice does in mayo.
Irish Cream Liqueur
about a Fifth
Printed Version
1 3/4 cups good Irish whiskey
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk (Eagle Brand)
1 cup heavy cream
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
2 teaspoons instant coffee (regular or espresso)
1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Combine all ingredients in a blender, mix well. Put into a fifth bottle or pretty decanter. Keeps refrigerated up to 1 month. Stir or shake before serving over ice or in coffee, if desired.
