Being 1/4 Irish I have to celebrate St. Paddy’s day properly. And that means with a good quality Irish Cream. Since I have pretty much given up real dairy I wanted to see if I could come up with a delicious dairy free Irish Cream recipe that would make my ancestors proud. I think I did it.

Looks good, but I’m honestly not much of a drinker, and I can’t stand scotch or whiskey. 🙁

Sounds yummy. Could you taste the chocolate in it?

yes, you can taste the chocolate but it isn’t strong. You can adjust to your own tastes.
What a yummy recipe!!
