These cookies were for a birthday party of two friends (guy friends), I thought that alcohol would maybe make them manly...(??)
Anyways I typed "Irish Cream" in the food blog search cause thats what I had on hand, I stumbled upon a few recipes but this one appealed to me the most. the only thing I changed was the sugar ratio- don't ask me why I just felt like it. At the party itself it felt kinda weird offering cookies when everbody was playing it cool and drinking beer....
But I did it anyway and they really were a hit, either because drunk people are easy to impress or they actually were really good. I must admit that I don't consume alcohol in anyway, so maybe putting alcohol in cookies is my own way of getting drunk! Sort of....
Well these really were very good and keep their Bailey's flavor very well after baking, as for how they taste after a few days I can't say.
The addition of white chocolates works really good with the baileys flavor and doesn't over power it as dark chocolate might would have.

115 gr (1/2 cup) butter, room temperature

¼ regular sugar
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ regular sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup Bailey's liqueur
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
100 gr white chocolate, chopped
1/4 cup Bailey's liqueur
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
100 gr white chocolate, chopped
Preheat the oven to 180°.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and both sugars. Beat in egg, followed by the Bailey's and vanilla.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the butter mixture until no streaks of flour remain and stir in the white chocolate.
Form dough into 1 inch balls and place on baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between cookies. Bake for 10-13 minutes, until light golden at the edges.
Cool on the baking sheet for 3-4 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Makes 2 1/2 - 3 dozen.

mm yummy!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about cookies being "unmanly." (Unless the cookies are for a boyfriend, which in that case "un-manliness" is somewhat acceptable and often expected.) I'm definitely saving this recipe, so the next time one of my male friends has a housewarming, I can come equipped with these! Thanks for sharing!
