Just in time for Saint Patrick’s Day.  This Irish Cream Chocolate Brownie Recipe is a great way to enjoy your favorite chocolate dessert with a little Irish flavor!  Cake like chocolate brownies topped with chocolate Irish Cream frosting.

Irish Cream Chocolate Brownie Recipe - This easy brownie recipe is full of Irish Cream and Chocolate flavor! Makes a cake like brownie that is perfect for dessert!

So let’s be real here.  I have never met a homemade brownie that I didn’t like.  Cakey, fudgy, frosted, glazed, plain, stuffed or gooey.  You name it.  I just LOVE brownies!

Sure you can go the boxed brownie route.  I’m not going to judge.  They certainly have their time and place.

But, if you have to get out the eggs and oil anyway.  Why not just make the entire batch from scratch?

Not only will you get homemade brownie bragging rights.  You can also tweak the flavors however you want.  Like I did with this Irish Cream Chocolate Brownie Recipe.

So put that box back in your pantry.  Save it for a chocolate emergency.  And make these brownies instead!

      I am sure you could substitute coffee for the whiskey or even chocolate syrup.

    I just made these for my co-workers for tomorrow and it’s driving me crazy that I can’t cut into them to sample. The batter was delicious, as was the frosting. I can only assume the end product is delicious as well! Only thing I’m worried about is that my temperamental (no pun intended) oven yielded firm results at only 28 minutes…hope I didn’t dry them out! Then again, who would complain, right?

    ;-D

    With Irish cream whisky, do you mean like Bailey’s, or something stronger?

      Bailey’s works great!

    I’m using a 9×13 baking dish, should I double ke this recipe?

      I always make my brownies in a small batch. But yes, for the larger pan go ahead and double. The cooking time may need to be adjusted as well. So keep a close eye on it.

      Oh, happy {early} birthday! I have a couple brownie recipes that do not involve alcohol. Nutella Brownies: https://wonkywonderful.com/chocolate-chunk-nutella-brownies-recipe/ or Mocha Brownies: https://wonkywonderful.com/triple-chocolate-mocha-brownies/ The mocha brownies would be a great alternative if you are a coffee fan 🙂

      Try the Irish Cream Coffee Creamers instead of the Baileys.

    For those not wanting to use alcohol, you can try substituting Irish Cream flavoured coffee creamer instead!

    My frosting looks nothing like yours. I don’t know what happened. Hopefully it still taste good.

      Oh no! I hope it tastes great too. Is yours thicker or thinner than my frosting?

        It still tasted fine. But it was thinner and a lot darker. Your looks fluffy my is more like a glaze. Maybe my butter was to soft. I did as the directions said so I don’t know

          If it turned out more like a glaze I would guess that the butter may have gotten too warm. I’m glad it still tasted good though … that is the most important thing!

    I made these this afternoon and they are absolutely heavenly!!! I baked them 28 minutes but then that’s probably just my oven. The frosting wasn’t as light of a color like in your picture but that’s ok. Seriously, they are super good!!!! Thanks for a great recipe!

    These are delicious! Checked mine at 27 minutes and they were completely done. I was afraid they’d be dry and overbaked, but they are not! The frosting is to-die-for! Thank you for a great recipe 🙂

    I made these brownies yesterday and they were really good! They turned out perfect. The only thing I did differently was I replaced half of the butter in the frosting with cream cheese and my brownies only needed to bake for 23 minutes.
