I am a massive fan of Baileys.
It’s indulgent, warming, creamy and a real treat of a drink.
I have to admit I do tend to over-indulge on it at Christmas in the form of Baileys over ice, more Baileys over ice, Baileys cream slathered on a Christmas pudding, more Baileys over Ice and then maybe a Baileys coffee or five, but that hasn’t hindered my appreciation for this unique tipple.
I made some of my Gin Syrup for a lovely friend who has had a particularly tough time over the last few years (you’re welcome Tamsin!) this week and a friend of hers mentioned she didn’t care for Gin and she would enjoy a Baileys sauce recipe. So, I headed into the kitchen to see what I could come up with.
I had a recipe for fudge sauce made with cream, so I figured I could try replacing the cream with Baileys (essentially similar, just alcoholic and more tasty!) It worked really well and I would absolutely love some of this warmed up and drizzled over pancakes or ice cream! I also think it would make a lovely topping to Profiteroles or a Chocolate Fudge Cake. Endless possibilities!
Enjoy!
Looks delish #bigpinklink
Im not a drinker myself, but I know plenty of people who would absolutely love this so will be sharing it far and wide #bugpinklink

That looks devine! If you’ve not tried it, you must try Amarula. It’s basically the same, but the African version of Bailey’s. I used to buy it in Tesco’s so it is available worldwide. Everything you do with Bailey’s you can do with Amarula. Very moreish.
#bigpinklink
Oh wow – I need this in my life right now!!! Looks amazing xx #bigpinklink
Yum this sounds amazing! I might have to try this.., I’ll let you know #bigpinklink
Oh my god!! I could eat this entire jar with a spoon, no lie! I love baileys, and I love fudge, so this is like the ultimate booze fuelled treat! I bloody love you! #bigpinklink

This sounds awesome, fudge and Baileys what a combo! #bigpinklink
There goes my waistline! I love baileys, there is no way I could have just a little, reasonable helping of this! #BigPinkLink
Baileys is the best drink, and I don’t even drink! Bet this was really good. I love anything creamy. Back when I did still drink occasionally, I always liked the creamy cocktails. The ones with baileys or kahlua and unfortunately embarrassing names! #bigpinklink
