Ingredients
3 oz Milk chocolate, grated
2 cups Confectioners' sugar
⅛ tsp Kosher salt
¼ cup Irish cream liqueur
Directions
Combine the grated milk chocolate and confectioners' sugar in a medium mixing bowl.
Add the kosher salt and stir until evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
Gradually pour in the Irish cream liqueur while stirring continuously until the glaze reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
Use immediately for drizzling over cakes, pastries, or desserts, or refrigerate for later use. Warm gently if the glaze has thickened during storage.
Comments
Irish cream liqueur is a single-stop find at any Charlotte grocery chain—Harris Teeter, Walmart, Food Lion all stock it—and the other ingredients are pantry staples that cost under $2 total for six servings. The stated 10 minutes is honest; this is a glaze that you melt, whisk, and set. The real caveat is that this works only as a same-night finish for a cake or pastry, not as a do-ahead component, and it demands you have a suitable dessert planned to receive it.
