Homemade Baileys Irish Cream comes together 1 minute, with ingredients you likely already have on hand. Rich, creamy, and the flavor is a dead ringer for store-bought!
1cuphalf-and-half or heavy creamI used half-and-half
2tablespoonschocolate syrupI used Hershey’s
2teaspoonsvanilla extract
1teaspooninstant coffee granules or instant espressomake sure it’s instant so it dissolves
Instructions
Combine all ingredients in the canister of a blender and blend on high speed until smooth, 30 to 60 seconds.
Transfer mixture to a glass bottle or airtight container with a tight-fitting lid and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months (I have read anywhere between 1 to 2 months; the alcohol helps preserve it, but always use the sniff test and common sense).
Shake well before using.
