Does anybody have a tried and tested recipe for this? Alison x

no, but i have a great recipe for no-cook baileys cake

get some choc chip biscuits, dip them briefly in baileys each side and arrange them on a plate in a circular pyramid. Whisk some double cream and cover the mound of biscuits completely, then crumble some flakes over the top and put in the fridge for a few hours. Yuuuuuuuum

i do a baileys and malteser cheesecake

crush digestives and maltesers together in a bowl, mix in some brown sugar. melt butter and add to the biscuit mix. press into a loose-bottom tin and place in fridge.

i use mascarpone for my filling in this one, i would normally use philadelphia but mascarpone has a more subtle flavour. i mix the mascarpone with some caster sugar and some lighly whipped double cream. i add some baileys and por on top of the biscuit mix...i then leave in the fridge until it is set.

i then melt some choc and add some baileys to it to drizzle over the cake when i slice it

yummy!!

Thanks bellasasha I will try that recipe, the one I have just aint that tasty! Alison x

just watch the amount of baileys you add cos it can be quite clawy....just make sure it is sweet enough...you'll love it, serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream too.
