White Chocolate Irish Cream – Creamy, dreamy, smooth and delicious! A wonderful after dinner drink that tastes like dessert!
Who needs dessert when you have this wonderfully smooth, creamy and delicious cordial? Impress your guests with a homemade White Chocolate Irish Cream that will have them begging for the recipe. I can’t believe how simple it is to make and how easy it is to drink 🙂 It’s rich but not really sweet and would be fantastic drizzled over a bowl of ice cream.
The recipe makes enough to share so it could be a great hostess gift presented in a lovely well-sealed bottle. I’m not saying you have to share – just trying to help in case you’re invited to a St. Patrick’s Day party this year. Since I’m feeling a bit “captain obvious” today I’ll add that this recipe doesn’t have to be saved for a special day in March, I think it would be pretty great any time of the year!
Serve chilled in cordial glasses or over ice in a rocks/whiskey glass for a wonderful relaxing end to your day.
Thanks for PINNING!

Sue from The View from Great Island posted a beautiful homemade Irish Cream recipe this past weekend and now I want to try hers too! I should have listened to Sue when she said to be careful and not “taste-test” too much or too often, especially early in the day. Hope you have a wonderful Monday and a great St. Patrick’s Day – thanks so much for stopping by!

I’d love this drizzled on ice cream, too. What a sweet way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!
Tricia Buice says
Drizzled on ice cream, any flavor, might be just the ticket this weekend! Somebody has to help drink this Irish cream – might as well be me!
John@Kitchen Riffs says
Share? This? No way! Oh, OK, I guess I would. Because I’d make a double batch so there would be plenty for me. 😉 Really nice — thanks.
Tricia Buice says
Haha – I understand and agree – you don’t have to share John! It is a strong one – but if you’re a fan of irish whiskey and all things creamy – this is the one for you 🙂
Susan says
I saw Sue’s post too and immediately saved the recipe. I’ll be adding this one too 🙂 Lovely photos!
Tricia Buice says
Thanks Susan – I bet Sue’s recipe is wonderful!

I would love to have a glass too. So dreamy, creamy and beautiful!
Tricia Buice says
Thanks Angie – those little glasses here and there really add up!
Betty says
You and Sue know what I like! 🙂 I made Sue’s when I got home from work this afternoon- nice way to relax after a long day, eh? Your white chocolate version sounds tempting too, and I have a cup of heavy cream left over that really shouldn’t go to waste. 🙂
Tricia Buice says
I love Sue’s recipe too – guess I would add just a weee bit more of the spirit!
Betty says
Ha ha…that’s exactly what I did! 🙂

Tricia Buice says
Chilling is good – I need some more relaxation 🙂 with one of these yummy glasses of dessert!
Monica says
I am more than willing to forego our regularly scheduled dessert programming for this, Tricia. I can just picture sitting back and savoring this delicious drink after dinner. It sounds like a delicious recipe and I love how you so simply, and beautifully, presented it here.
Tricia Buice says
Haha – yes indeed Monica! You are so sweet – can’t wait to see what you’re cooking up today!
