Baileys® Chocolate and Cream Cheese Brownies

Baileys® Chocolate and Cream Cheese Brownies

It was my friend’s birthday almost half a month ago and he’s a huge fan of Baileys® and brownies, so I decided to bake something that have all of these components in one recipe. I didn’t have any recipe on hand that involve Baileys® and brownies, only Baileys® and cake. So I did a little Google-ing and ended up with numerous recipes to choose from. After much sifting, I’ve decided to opt for a combination of both recipes, one by Peabody and one by Zink.

The brownies are very tasty and yummy. However I would probably double the swirl the next time I make them again. The swirl, to me, is too little and was easily over-powered by the chocolate. I love the drizzling of the Baileys® into the brownies. It makes the brownies even more flavourful. I added only 2 tablespoons that time, I’ll increase it into 3 tablespoons the next time.

Baileys Chocolate and Cream Cheese Brownies

Servings: 12 servings

INGREDIENTS
 

For the Swirl:

  • 3 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp Baileys® Irish Cream

For the Brownies:

  • 1 cup of pecans
  • 6 ounces bittersweet baking chocolate, chopped (65% cocoa)
  • 3 TBSP unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 to 4 TBSP Baileys® Irish Cream

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 175°C. Lightly butter an 8-inch square baking pan. Line a baking sheet in the baking pan, extending the sides for easy lifting.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and butter in medium bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the sugar and beat until well blended. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Fold in flour, Baileys®, and vanilla. Set mixture aside.
  • Lightly toast the pecans for 10 minutes. Let cool and chop them into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
  • Combine the baking chocolate and butter in a heat-proof bowl. Set over a pan of simmering hot water (double boiler) and melt the chocolate and butter until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps. Cool slightly.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat sugar and eggs in a large bowl until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Beat in the chocolate mixture, vanilla and 1 tablespoon of Baileys®. Fold in the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Spread half of chocolate batter in the prepared pan. Using a rubber spatula, spread cream cheese mixture over chocolate batter. Spoon remaining chocolate batter over top of cream cheese mixture. Using the tip of a knife, gently swirl through batter, forming a marble design. Bake until tester inserted into center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 30 minutes.
  • Using a skewer, randomly poke holes in the brownies and drizzle the remaining 2 to 3 tablespoons of Baileys® into the brownies, depending on how strong you want the Baileys® taste to be. Let the brownies cool in tin before lifting it out. Cut into squares and serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla/Baileys® ice cream. Or even better – serve with a small slurp of Baileys®!
