just made this for the first time. Initial impression is good. Have yet to age and taste. Biggest comment is to make a runny ganache before adding the whiskey as liquor will cause the melted chocolate to thicken. Thus, take about 2/3 cup of the cream and bring it to a boil. Turn off, add the chocolate and let the chocolate melt. Once it has melted, add the rest of the ingredients, whiskey last (don't want to heat the alcohol out).

YUM! Made it exactly per recipe and the taste is gorgeous after 1 week. I can hardly wait a month for it but I am going to. Thanks for a wonderful recipe and mine will be just in time for Christmas!

Absolutely Amazing! I know I shouldn't say this but I substituted the Jamisons for a cheaper brand of Irish Whiskey and actually liked it better, it was a bit stronger then the Jamisons but still wonderful. I also use a full 12 oz bag of the milk chocolate morsels which makes it creamer and more chocolatey. I make it every year for our christmas party and always get tons of raves. If you want a real treat top off a shot of homemade khaulua with Irish Cream (drizzled on the side) for a wonderful "baby guiness" Yum!

Delicious and very easy. I melted the chocolate in the microwave instead of using a double boiler. (I just thought it was easier). I hope I can wait the 3 weeks to drink it!

If I could give it 10 stars - I would! This is the BEST Irish cream EVER! Super Easy to make. It makes 14 cups and come out to about $2.30 per cup. Way cheaper than the brand name Irish Cream. So I will be making a TON more of my famous Irish Cream Fudge!

Absolutely loved the recipe! Someone had given a bottle of whiskey which I didn't like the taste of so I turned it into Irish Cream! Fantastic recipe

Instead of using granulated coffe, I get 1 shot of espresso (more if doubling recipe) from the coffee shop around the corner and add it slowly to the melting chocolate to keep the chocolate creamy and smooth. A few dashed of mint make an excellent 'Chocolate-Mint Irish Cream' treat. I LOVE this recipe and make a double batch every year to bottle up in mini containers as gifts for family and co-workers.
