Time for a Baileys Friendsgiving! Okay, it’s really Friendsgiving all the time with me and my friends, but this Friendsgiving mini-soiree was a great excuse to play around with some Baileys. In fact we used this mini-soiree to sample some desserts and plan our bigger holiday party. Since its high holiday season and everyone’s busy with holiday planning and attending holiday plans, I wanted to create recipes for easy entertaining and one that you can even gift. How’s that for multi-tasking?
To start things off I made a truffle with one of my favorite flavors, mint. Let me start by saying I’m really particular about mint. Too much mint and things start to go bad because it can have an overpowering effect. To keep the mint as an enhancer rather than a dominator to the chocolate I used Baileys® Hint of Mint Chocolate. Its smooth mint flavor is set against a subtle chocolate undertone that makes it perfect for flavoring a dark chocolate truffle body.
These turned out so great, I’m adding them to my holiday gift giving. Next up is the Café Au Lait Trifle. Folded into the body of the chocolate mousse is Baileys® with a Hint of Coffee. Continue reading Baileys Mint Truffle, Cafe Au Lait Trifle and a Caramel Mocha Martini!
