Receta Irish Cream Cake Pops....the adult treat!
Grab a cup of hot coffee and pull up a chair....these treats are going to make you happy! I have not made cake pops since the first time I made the cupcake pops almost 3 years ago now! Back when I first saw them on Bakerella's site, I fell immediately in love with how cute they were! I was working weekends at a non-profit group for abused women - and I made these treats for that weekend. Even Bakerella included my post in her "they're poppin up all over" post. I was honored she even put me on her list - especially since I was such a new blogger and my photos didn't look anywhere near as good then!
Well Bakerella, what a trend you started! Even Starbucks is making cake pops now...the Tiramisu being the most awesome one of them all! Actually, Starbucks is what got me to thinking about making these cake pops again. I never made them again after that first time....for two reasons. Time consuming, and I didn't care for the canned frosting. This time, after seeing the flavors that Starbucks made, I thought to myself, why can't I make one that is Irish Cream flavored for St. Patrick's Day?
As you can see....I did make them again, and I did go with Irish Cream! The snob in me made my own cake and frosting....but seriously, they wouldn't have been the same flavor wise if I hadn't. These definitely are cake pops for the adult! The frosting is pure butter, sugar, and Bailey's Irish Cream!
If you feel tempted to make these, please know, that patience needs to come in when dipping these babies. That is the longest part of the whole process! If you make them, please let me know how you liked them! I can tell you they were a hit with people at my workplace and at Grumpy's workplace....and even with Grumpy! When I asked him if he ate one today....his response was "No. I ate two." ;o) Enjoy and Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
