If you’re looking for a yummy, festive dessert for St. Patrick’s Day, this is definitely the one! This Irish Cream spiked mousse is so easy and tastes amazing!
This dessert requires just a few ingredients. You’ll need chocolate chips, I like to use dark chocolate 🍫 You’ll also need heavy whipping cream and vanilla. Most importantly you need Irish Cream, which is the star of this St. Patrick’s Day dessert. I went with the classic Baileys Irish Cream.
To make this yummy mousse, you’ll start by placing your chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and heating them up for 30 seconds at a time, stirring as you go until they are completely melted. Next you will begin mixing your whipping cream until it starts to form small peaks. Then you will add your vanilla and Irish Cream. Slowly add your chocolate to the cream and mix again until it forms soft peaks. Place in dessert dishes and serve right away or refrigerate. You can top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings if you like. That’s it!
This dessert Is. So. Good. I mean like amazing. It’s smooth and rich and the Irish Cream really comes through! You will love this dessert! Enjoy being Irish for a day and Happy St. Patrick’s Day! ☘️
