Fudgy Baileys Chocolate Brownies

There’s something magical about the combination of rich chocolate, a hint of coffee, and the smooth, creamy notes of Irish cream liqueur. These Baileys brownies strike the perfect balance—chewy in the center, crisp at the edges, and enhanced with a subtle espresso kick that deepens the cocoa flavor. They’re quick to make, require only simple ingredients, and bake up beautifully in a small pan. A light dusting of powdered sugar makes them not just irresistible in taste but gorgeous in presentation.

Ingredients for Fudgy Baileys Chocolate Brownies

  • 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup (50 g) unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/3 cup (heaping) bittersweet or dark chocolate chips (about 60 g)

  • 1/4 cup (60 g) butter

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar

  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) Baileys Irish Cream

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


How to Make Fudgy Baileys Chocolate Brownies

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20 cm) baking pan with foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.

  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and butter. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, salt, and baking soda.

  4. Once the chocolate-butter mixture has cooled a bit, whisk in the eggs, sugar, Baileys Irish Cream, and vanilla until fully combined.

  5. Gradually stir in the dry ingredients until just incorporated.

  6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.

  7. Allow to cool completely in the pan, then, if desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
