Description

These soft chocolate-covered cookie balls are the boozy dessert you need in your life! Made in a snap with just 5 ingredients, these No-Bake Baileys Irish Cream Cookies are perfect for Saint Patrick’s Day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups vanilla wafer crumbs
  • 1 cup (115g) powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) corn syrup
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) Baileys Irish Cream
  • 12 oz candy melts

Instructions

1. Combine vanilla wafer crumbs and powdered sugar in a large bowl.

2. Add corn syrup and Irish cream and mix well. Mixture will be crumbly.

3. Make balls of about 1 tablespoon each of the vanilla wafer mixture. Shape balls with your fingertips and set aside. Dough might become sticky – you can dust your fingertips with powdered sugar to help with the stickiness.

4. Melt candy melts in a bowl in the microwave using short time increments of about 15-45 seconds.

5. Dip each ball into the chocolate (you can rest the balls on a fork, or use a toothpick) and set on a piece of parchment paper to dry.


Notes

Makes 20-24 cookie balls.

To Store: These cookies can be kept at room temperature for 24 hours or so, but if you’re storing them for longer, refrigerate them in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Bring them to room temperature before enjoying if desired.
