Baileys has an alcohol content of 17 and 140 calories per 1.5 oz serving. The exact composition is a big secret, of course. The remaining 10 are sugar and flavorings like vanilla, chocolate, and coffee. Again, not a big thing, it just wasn’t my favorite color. Baileys Irish cream is a cream liqueur with a base of 50 cream and about 40 Irish Whiskey. Obviously, it’s not white like milk so the glaze will obviously be tinted the same color. I beleive the color is caused by the color of the Irish Cream. It’s not a huge deal but I just want you to be forewarned. Another thing I wanted to say about the glaze is that it’s color was a little gray. I just added some water to create a smooth, pourable consistency. There was no way that ratio worked out for me. The original recipe called for only 3 tablespoons of Irish Cream to 2 cups of powdered sugar. I LOVE Paula Deen 🙂 One of the few things I’ve changed in this recipe is the amount of liquid in the glaze.
This recipe comes from Paula Deen….need I say more. I’m not exactly sure why, but it seems that pound cake perfection is encoded in their DNA. I think I’m in heaven! Oh, and did I mention this cake is made totally from scratch…… I have a secret to share with you……if you want to make a really good pound cake….you better make sure the recipe comes from a Southern. Here’s a wonderful cake….Irish Cream Cake….ah….YUM! It’s a rich, dense, very sweet pound cake flavored magnificently with Irish Cream. It has a mild Irish Cream flavor topped with an unforgettable glaze. For a wonderfully rich dense sweet treat, you must try my Baileys Irish Cream Cake.
