Just in time for St. Patrick's Day... I (Leeann) made this Friday, and it turned out to be a splendid crowd-pleaser! It’s heavy enough that you don’t have to make a lot of it because one bar per person is plenty (usually), but it is a delectable post-dinner treat that goes wonderfully with coffee. My people knew what they were doing when they invited Irish cream.
Heat oven to 350. Mix together the following until a soft dough forms:
¾ cup flour
½ cup butter or margarine, softened (I used butter)
¼ cup powdered sugar (we didn’t have it, so I substituted 1/8 cup of white sugar)
2 tablespoons unsweetened baking cocoa
Press crust into ungreased square pan and bake for 10 minutes.
While that’s cooking, combine:
¾ cup sour cream
½ cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup Irish cream (and an extra splash for good measure)
1 tablespoon flour
1 teaspoon vanilla (which means 1 tablespoon if you’re me)
1 egg
Whisk together until blended. Pour over baked crust, and return to oven for 15-20 minutes or until filling is set. Cool, then refrigerate until firm (2 hours recommended before cutting).
Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles if desired.
Who are we? Working women who also happen to like to cook . . . some recipes are favorites shared by family members, some are experiments we stumble across that turn out pretty good! You should be able to find a little of everything here: from elaborate to extremely easy, from healthy to indulgent - enjoy!
