Irish Cream Fudge is an after dinner treat just for adults! This boozy fudge recipe combines Bailey's and milk chocolate—the perfect finish to a meal! No candy thermometer needed!
Line a 9inch square dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add milk chocolate chips and marshmallow cream. Set aside.
In a large saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and cream. Heat over medium high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to boil. Continue boiling for 3-4 minutes (at a rolling boil). Remove from heat and add Bailey's Irish Cream. Pour everything over chocolate chips and marshmallow cream.
Using an electric mixer, beat mixture until chocolate chips are melted and fudge is creamy (about 1-2 minutes).
Pour into prepared pan. Allow fudge to set for about 4 hours (or overnight) at room temperature.
Notes
Does this fudge contain alcohol?YES! A few squares of this fudge aren’t going to get you drunk, but it does contain a noticeable amount of alcohol. Drink—or, in this case, EAT—responsibly!
Can I use homemade Irish cream instead?I haven’t ever tested this fudge recipe with homemade Irish Cream. Only Bailey’s. If you try it, leave a comment to let me know how it turns out!
How long does this fudge keep?This fudge will keep well for a couple of weeks if you store it in an airtight container. But who’s going to resist eating all of this tasty fudge for that long?!
Can I make this without the alcohol?You could, but then it wouldn’t be Irish Cream Fudge! I do have plenty of alcohol-free fudge recipes on the site, if you need a treat that everyone can enjoy.
