How to Make Bailey's Irish Cream
- Melt the 6 ounces of finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and completely melted.
- Slowly pour in the 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk, whisking constantly to create a smooth mixture.
- Gently whisk in the 1 cup of chilled heavy cream until fully incorporated and the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Stir in the 1/2 cup of Irish whiskey, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon of instant coffee powder (if using), and a pinch of salt. Whisk until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into two 26-ounce sterilized bottles. Seal tightly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cream to chill thoroughly.
- Enjoy your homemade Bailey's Irish Cream! Serve chilled over ice, in coffee, or as a delicious addition to desserts.
