Yeah, my brownie kick is about over....for now anyway! I have other things on my mind so brownies are going to probably take a back seat for a little while! But I have one more to share.
Irish Cream Brownies. I have all this Irish Cream Liquor and since I didn't use it to make a cheesecake or liquor soaked cake over the holidays, I needed to use it in something.....besides a shot glass. ;o)
This is another Cooking Light recipe so it won't break your calorie or WW points bank! It turned out really fudgy and you could detect the flavor of the Irish Cream in the brownie. Was it my favorite? No. The Mocha Toffee Brownie was my very favorite, but it was good and they all disappeared before noon in the office (which is a good indication of a good recipe!).
Irish Cream Brownies
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup Baileys Irish Cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cooking spray
Preheat oven to 350°.
Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk.
Place the chocolate chips and the butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1 1/2 minutes or until the chocolate chips and butter melt, stirring every 30 seconds. Cool slightly. Add sugar and next 3 ingredients (through vanilla extract), stirring well with a whisk. Microwave at HIGH 1 minute or until sugar dissolves, stirring every 30 seconds. Fold in the flour mixture, stirring just until moist. Spread batter in a thin layer into a 9-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out almost clean. Cool on a wire rack.

ReplyDeleteI'm afraid my portion wouldn't be 3 points, as I would have to cut it larger. :)
ReplyDeleteThis might be my favorite of your wonderful brownie ideas! How can I apply for a job in your office?? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda!
ReplyDeleteLinda, even two wouldn't hurt ;o)
Beth! I would rather come work with YOU! Your job sounds much more exciting!
I'm having a lot of fun with brownies. I'm not sure though that I'm done.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of the brownie on top of the glass of milk! I need to try and be more creative with my photos! They're borrrrrrrring!
~ingrid
hehe...Ingrid...that is a shot glass with Irish Cream Liquor! ;o)
ReplyDeleteLooks really fudgy! Sounds great with Irish cream.
ReplyDeleteHow can an Irish girl not love this brownie!
ReplyDeleteOh yes please! How about I make dinner and you bring dessert? YUM!

Irish cream and chocolate is a heavenly combo. ...and they're light? You're amazing!
ReplyDeleteThey look so moist and fudgy, yummy!
ReplyDeleteOh geez, this sounds right up there with the jr. mint one. Oh lord I am done for here.
ReplyDeleteThose look fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking brownies! Now I need some chocolate!
ReplyDeleteYum! All of the brownie recipes you've posted have looked so good :) I will have to try some soon.
ReplyDeleteSo many brownies so little time... These ones sound really good!
ReplyDeleteI will be dreaming about this :)
ReplyDeleteReally Shelby you are making to dream yummy brownies...this is heavenly!!! If it were possible, I can drink Baileys instead of water….;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not a brownie fan, but that looks good. I would like a big bite!
ReplyDeleteYou forgot an important part of the recipe: 1 shot of Bailey's for the brownie-baker between each step! 8-D
ReplyDeleteThese look amazing - can you believe I've never had irish cream before?
ReplyDeletewhat all yummy dishes or snacks did I see today.I don't think unless I make these my tongue would stop watering.
ReplyDeleteCheers!!!
Oh man, I love Baileys! Those would go great with the hot chocolate I made a while ago, it had Baileys too. Heh. It, on the other hand, would break your WW points. Way too much cream. :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow!! A few years ago, my friend brought me some Irish cream from Ireland and I had no idea what to do with it because I don't drink it, but I wish I had this brownie recipe back then!
ReplyDeletemmmm..brownies and only 3 points!! SCORE!!
ReplyDeleteSilly me. I was just using the leftover Bailey's as coffee creamer. (Not every day, just the ones when it's under 30* outside). These brownies will be great with my.. my.. ummm coffee. mmmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteVal
It sure do looks good. And it's cooking light too. Added to my TBT (to be tried) list...
ReplyDelete~Foong~
These are soo my kind of Brownie, actually anything with Baileys is up my alley!! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI would not have guessed that could be a reasonable WW recipe with Bailey's in it! Thanks for posting this!
ReplyDeleteWHOA...those look delish! Very very yum!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to add Irish cream in those delicious brownies! Yum!
ReplyDeleteCan't argue with a little bit of Baileys!
ReplyDeleteI am extremely jealous of all these brownies you have been baking.
ReplyDeleteThese look great! I usually make black and tan brownies (with Guinness) for St. Patrick's Day. I might have to try these instead this year!
ReplyDeleteYummy!! I'm saving this recipe since you said you can taste the Irish Cream. I've only baked once with Irish Cream and was disappointed that you could barely taste it (an Irish cream cheesecake).
ReplyDeleteIrish cream and chocolate! This sounds fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThese look yummy! I love Irish cream!
ReplyDeleteI would so love one of these tonight!!! YUM
ReplyDeleteI suppose it's very rich in cream. I'm making this tomorrow. I think I'll try to shoot it, but I don't think it will be as pretty as your picture!
ReplyDeletethose looks luscious awesome idea will try for sure~
ReplyDeleteIrish cream , chocolate and only 3 points. I will have 2 please! Did I tell you, Baileys and I are really good friends. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHi there! These are delicious! I'm featuring them on my blog in a compilation of Irish recipes for St. Paddy's. Thank you!! www.nalomakitchen.blogspot.com
