Post by: Thermomixer on November 28, 2009, 12:35:23 am: Thanks chookie - I remember when Baileys first hit the market here (mannnnnny years ago !!) and there were versions with whole eggs, including the shell that got blitzed up and strained. This is easier and less prone to being gritty.

Does anyone remember that version? or am I dreaming?

Post by: JulieO on November 28, 2009, 03:45:02 am: I've got a version with egg, but no shell :o It's just the best and I have been told it's much nicer than the original. If anyone is interested I'd be only too happy to share. :)

Post by: achookwoman on November 29, 2009, 04:55:15 am: julieO, I would love the recipe for Irish Cream with egg. The one I've posted has glycerine which is difficult to purchase. I did find it at Safeway , in the medicinal section..... You can leave it out without much effect. The glycerine adds to the texture and is said to be a preservative.

Post by: JulieO on November 29, 2009, 05:22:22 am: Chookie, it's a really difficult recipe, I hope you can handle it! :D :D

HOME MADE BAILEY'S
1 tin sweetened condensed milk (I think it’s about 400g?)
300ml carton thickened cream
¼ tsp coconut essence
1 cup brandy (or whisky if that is your preference - I prefer brandy)
1 ½ tblsp chocolate topping
3 eggs

Combine all in a large mixer bowl. Mix together for 2 mins. Pour into suitable containers.

Of course just whizz up in the TM. It's so simple, but really nice, lasts a while in the fridge too.

Post by: achookwoman on December 01, 2009, 11:02:35 am: JulieO, thanks for the recipe for the Irish Cream. I'll make it and invite some friends around and we will do a blind test.
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: judydawn on December 01, 2009, 11:21:35 am: Be interested to hear the results of that blind test chookie.
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: Thermomixer on December 01, 2009, 01:14:37 pm: Hope that's not a blind drunk test ;) ;) ;D If you put it in the zabaglione then they definitely won't know the difference.

Post by: judydawn on December 06, 2009, 01:18:35 am: Which one did you do TC?
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: Thermo convert on December 06, 2009, 08:41:36 pm: Hi JD,
I made the one with the eggs in it and used whiskey. One bottle for a gift and the remainder has gone already. My 23 year old son is home.
He can empty a fridge by walking past it. Very nice mixed with ice and milk apparently.

Post by: reeve on December 07, 2009, 07:00:25 pm: I have looked on the Bailey's bottle and the ingredients do not include coffee in any shape or form.In the Thermomix My Way of Cooking has a far simpler recipe than the aforementioned ones and I believe a Teetotaler like me could be converted with the results.
Just thought I would mention it!!!
Kind regards
Reeve

Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: scyrene on December 15, 2009, 09:26:43 pm: I'm SO glad people have posted these recipes - I've been meaning to try homemade Baileys for a while. Apparently my great-grandmother used to make it, so if I get her recipe from my grandparents, I'll be sure to share it. In the meantime, I can't wait to try these - especially the glycerine one, as I have some and need to use it (also less problematic re. food poisoning concerns - I don't mind raw eggs, but my sister would likely be dead against it)...

Oh, and I've had the "does-it-contain-coffee" argument with my family and friends - family agrees Baileys original is somewhat coffee-based (or at least some older recipes contain coffee or Camp coffee essence), but since a coffee-flavoured version has just been released, perhaps we're all wrong (and my friends seem to think it never contained coffee)... I'd love to have a definitive answer!
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: scyrene on December 19, 2009, 08:24:10 pm: Okay, I've just made this exactly as stated and - it's good! Very good, in fact. However, it's slightly paler than the real thing (maybe they use colourings), and not quite as strongly-flavoured. I worked out the alcohol content, and I get around 8.2%, which may be wrong - but I think I'll add just a touch more whiskey and coffee...

Overall though, it's great - my family will be very pleased! :-D
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: meganjane on January 03, 2010, 04:25:02 am: I don't like raw eggs in anything, so I would make a custard with the cream and eggs, then let it cool then add the rest of the ingredients. This would possibly make it thicker too.
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: achookwoman on January 11, 2010, 07:30:00 am: I posted the 1st. recipe for the Irish Cream. I've just made another lot, but this time I put in the glycerine,( which was not in the 1st. lot)... it curdled. I tried to re incorporate it into the mix, but was only partly successful . Next time I will leave it out.
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: Thermomixer on January 11, 2010, 12:16:08 pm: Wonder why it did that? Wonder whether it might be better to warm the and add the milks and the other bits ?
Title: Re: Irish Cream [like Bailey's] - achookwoman
Post by: achookwoman on January 11, 2010, 01:00:39 pm: Could help, Thermomixer, will have to quickly drink the rejects and make some more.!
