Baileys Irish Cream Cheesecake Bars

St. Patrick’s Day is just a couple weeks away, and that means…desserts!!

I’m not a big party person these days (three kids will do that to ya), but I’m ALL about celebrating just about any occasion with delicious food and my favorite people.

These Baileys Cheesecake Bars are super fun – look how green they are! (Green is my favorite color! I’m crazy about this Green Ombre Mint Chocolate Cake too!)

These Baileys Irish Cream Cheesecake Bars are pretty simple to make and they’re absolutely delicious. What a fun combination of flavors!

Normally I’m not a huge fan of boozy desserts, but these Baileys cheesecake bars have just a touch of Irish cream liquor, so they’re not very strong. It adds a little bit extra flavor – just right!

Does alcohol cook out of baked goods?

Some, but not all, of the alcohol used in baked goods will evaporate in the oven. However, even with a baking time of one hour, about 25% of the original alcohol content remains.

There is only a small amount of Baileys Irish Cream liquor used in this recipe, but that still makes it a grown-ups only treat.

For a non-alcoholic version, substitute with Irish cream coffee creamer.

Kitchen Supplies Used

  • 9×13″ baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Stand mixer
  • Saucepan
  • Kelly green food coloring

One of the coolest things about this recipe is the bright green crust. It’s so festive and perfect for St. Patrick’s Day!

However, if you want to make these for a different occasion, simply omit the green food coloring.

How to make Baileys cheesecake bars for St. Patrick's Day

We used quite a bit of food coloring because we wanted the crust to be a bright deep green color.
