One of my favorite liqueurs is Baileys Irish Cream. I love the taste...but not the fat calories. So, I decided to tinker with this copycat Baileys Irish Cream version that I posted about on the blog earlier in the year. I changed up a few things then, and did a bit more tinkering with the recipe once again. I was going for a fat-free version that was comparable in taste to the copy-cat recipe...and I'm pretty happy with the results. Over ice or in my coffee, it's all good!
Homemade Fat-Free Irish Cream Liqueur
recipe can be halved
Ingredients
- one 12 ounce can of fat-free evaporated milk
- one 14 ounce can of fat-free sweetened condensed milk
- 1 2/3 cups of your favorite Irish whiskey
- 1 1/2 tsp instant coffee
- 3 Tbsp chocolate syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp almond extract (optional)
Throw all the ingredients into the blender & blend on high for 30 seconds. Store in a tightly sealed container in the fridge & serve well chilled. Some ways to enjoy this fat-free delight ~ straight-up over ice; as part of your favorite Irish Cream cocktail; with a little extra milk for a lighter Irish Cream flavor OR add it to your coffee for a special treat. Make sure to shake well before pouring...or for a more 'whipped' taste, throw it into the blender for another quick spin to get it nice & frothy. Enjoy! :)
