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!

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

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.

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.

[Thermomixer]

Wonder why it did that?  Wonder whether it might be better to warm the  and add the milks and the other bits ?

Could help,  Thermomixer,   will have to quickly drink the rejects and make some more.!
