Bailey's Buttercream Icing

"This is a fabulous buttercream icing with Bailey's in it, passed on to me by one of my best friends in Texas, who got the recipe from her aunt (and kicked it up a notch with some Bailey's!!). Beware: this ain't your mama's frosting! This definetly isn't the frosting you buy at the store either! This recipe makes enough thick, yummy buttercream frosting for one cake. Laura - here's to you! :)"

  1. I made this for work to top off coffee cupcakes, I made for St. Patrick's day. It went very well with the chocolate coffee cupcakes. I threw in some green food coloring for funsies. Everyone loved it and it was easy to make.
     
  2. I found this on par with a buttercream, consistency wise and sweetness. Taste is excellent. I'll be experimenting a bit with colours to see how it works, but as written the colour is the same as baileys.
     
  3. This recipe is so sweet I think I got diabetes.<br/>Tried it out to recreate Cupcakes and Cashmere's St. Patrick's Ombre Cake and the Bailey's flavor is delicious. However, it is SO sweet the Bailey's and cake flavor is completely overpowered. I would recommend using half the amount of sugar.
