Homemade Baileys Irish Cream

This tastes just like the store-bought version. I make it every year, before Christmas, to give as gifts (and of course to keep some for ourselves!). It ends up being less expensive than buying from the store AND you get to say that you made it yourself!

1 quart (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whiskey
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup coffee creamer (liquid type, such as half and half)

  • 1 (14 ounce) can Eagle Brand Condensed Milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Hersheys Chocolate Syrup

Directions

  1. 1
    Pour the whiskey into a blender and start adding ingredients, one by one, blending after each addition. Blend well.
  2. 2
    Pour into your desired container(s) and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
  3. 3
    (I would throw it out at the 2 week point - but ours never last that long!).

Pretty close to the real thing = Baileys! This was easy to make and the professional tasting results belied the fact that it was NOT a shop bought Irish Liqueur! Fabulous! I made mine a week ago for the virtual tour of Great Britain, and could not wait the two weeks to try it - it tastes VERY good already! Thanks for this "secret" recipe, VERY much enjoyed and will be made again! FT

    Wow is this good stuff! When I went to make this, I found I was out of whiskey. I asked Buddha if he felt the Christian Bros. brandy we had would work. He said no. Well, I'm defiant anyhow, so I decided to make a small batch and give it a whirl. I let it sit in the fridge for 1 day, gave Buddha a shotglass full to try, and guess what?... he bowed to me! (That'll teach him who the master cook is in this family!) lol. Great recipe, and so much cheaper than Bailey's, and more potent too. Thanks for sharing a keeper recipe.

    Outstanding!! This tastes EXACTLY like the original, but a whole lot less expensive. I was a little concerned about using the raw eggs in this, so I used 3/4 cup "Best of the Egg" pasteurized egg product instead. Also, the size of the Eagle Brand condensed milk can is 14 oz. Thank you so much for sharing this fantanstic recipe...it is a definite keeper. I will be making this frequently to enjoy in my evening coffee
