Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup Baileys Irish Cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips (or finely chopped chocolate)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Whipped cream & chocolate shavings (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Heat the Base:

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together milk, heavy cream, sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt over medium heat.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture starts to warm up (but not boil).

2. Temper the Egg Yolks:

  • In a small bowl, lightly whisk the egg yolks.
  • Slowly add a few tablespoons of the warm milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly to prevent scrambling.
  • Pour the tempered yolks back into the saucepan and whisk to combine.

3. Cook Until Thickened:

  • Continue cooking over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).

4. Add Chocolate & Baileys:

  • Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips, Baileys Irish Cream, and vanilla extract.
  • Whisk until smooth and fully melted.

5. Chill & Serve:

  • Pour the pudding into serving cups or ramekins.
  • Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
  • Chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours until set.

6. Garnish & Enjoy:

  • Top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving.

Notes

  • For a non-alcoholic version, substitute Baileys with additional heavy cream + 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • If you prefer a thicker pudding, increase cornstarch to 3 tbsp.
  • Want an extra boozy kick? Add 1 tbsp Irish whiskey along with the Baileys.
