Ingredients for Bailey S Irish Cream Balls

  • Vanilla Wafers
  • Pecans
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • Baileys Irish Cream
  • Light Corn Syrup
  • Unsweetened Cocoa

How to Make Bailey S Irish Cream Balls

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 8 ounces of cream cheese (softened), 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk, and 1/2 cup of Bailey's Irish Cream.
  2. Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon or spatula until completely smooth and well blended.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up.
  4. Once chilled, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands or a small cookie scoop.
  5. Place the truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. In a shallow dish, place 1 cup of powdered sugar. Gently roll each truffle in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
  7. Transfer the coated truffles to a wire rack to allow the powdered sugar to set for about 30 minutes.
  8. For an extra touch of sweetness, roll the truffles in powdered sugar again after they have set.
  9. Store the truffles in an airtight container lined with wax paper between layers to prevent sticking. They are best enjoyed within 3-4 days.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
