How to Make Bailey's Fudge Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, Bailey's Irish Cream, oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together the butter and cream cheese until smooth.
  8. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until light and fluffy.
  9. Stir in the remaining Bailey's Irish Cream until well combined.
  10. Once the cake is completely cool, frost the top with the Bailey's cream cheese frosting.
  11. Garnish with chopped pecan nuts (optional).
