Home made Irish Cream recipie...
I make this in gallons every year, and I have people begging me for a 'refill' year after year. I don't usually give out the recipe, but I figure I haven't made it for any of you, yet, so why not share something that is good?? :hi:

In a blender add the following: (If you don't have a blender a big bowl and a mixer will work too.)

3 eggs
1 1/2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup
1/4 teaspoon of coconut extract
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup of heavy cream
1 1/2 cups of whiskey (I buy Canadian mist or VO)

Blend for 2 minutes, pour into bottles or jars. Must be refrigerated.

I have no idea how long it lasts, since it doesn't last long in our house! We put it in our morning coffee or over ice. We have even made Mudslides with it. I am so used to the rich taste of mine, that I can't stand the taste of the real 'Bailey's'

Enjoy DU :*

2. It is awesome
and it has a higher alcohol content than the regular stuff. Very easy to make, no cooking, so you don't get scrambled eggs!:rofl:

11. You make chicken fried steak?
:swoon:

I do love a good CFS. It's the national dish of Texas, or one of them at least.

12. I learned from my Mom
who is married to a Texan. I do coat mine in flour, egg then bread crumbs to get the extra crunch. She does flour, egg and flour. But my milk gravy is to die for! Has an extra kick at the end! Oh and my sister knows how to make it too!!! HHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!

21. No.
It's a gravy made from milk thickened with a roux. Usually made in the same pan the chicken fried steak was cooked in.

22. a "roux" - my aren't we fancy
You watch the cooking channel way too much. A white sauce is made with a roux as well, but not with pan drippings.

23. OK, pour some flour into the leftover grease in the pan.
Cook out the raw flour, then add milk. How's that? :)

White sauces are generally cream and butter, right?

roux is made with butter! Of course, Matcom will tell me I have 'no idea what I am talking about', but I used to do all the cooking before he took over...Damn it! And I used to be 30 pounds lighter too! :mad:

If he can you can - unless MA is REALLY backward.

But seriously motorbikes are FUN to ride.
