How to Make Baileys Irish Cream Mousse Filling 

*See full, printable recipe card below

  • I love the balance of flavors in this "mousse", with it's thick and creamy consistency. Like many of our mousse fillings, this Irish Cream version's secret ingredient is instant vanilla pudding. When whipped up with heavy cream, and with the addition of the Irish cream, it is amazing!

 

  • I prefer to use a hand mixer for this filling, but you could also use a stand mixer with a whisk attachment or even whisk by hand.

 

  • Combine the dry pudding mix, heavy cream and Baileys Irish Cream  in a mixing bow (using a chilled glass bowl & beaters will speed up the mixing time!)

 

  • Begin on low speed until everything is well combined.  Then, increase speed and mix until the mixture is thick.   

 

  • Refrigerate the Irish Cream Filling until ready to use.  Cakes with this filling should be refrigerated until 1 to 2 hours before serving as the whipped cream makes this a perishable filling. If you are making the filling in advance, it should be fine in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

  1. Hi Kristina, This recipe is perishable because of the heavy cream. The cake should be refrigerated until and hour or so before serving, depending on the temperature of the room.
