Ingredients
1 cup Heavy cream, cold
3 tablespoons Baileys Irish Cream liqueur
½ cup Irish whiskey
4 tablespoons Brown sugar
4 cups Strong hot coffee
Directions
Pour the cold heavy cream into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Add the Baileys Irish Cream liqueur to the cream. Whip on medium-high speed until the mixture becomes stiff and fluffy peaks form, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the whipped cream to a separate bowl and set aside.
Brew strong hot coffee and divide evenly among 4 large mugs, allowing approximately 1 cup per mug. To each mug, add 2 tablespoons of Irish whiskey and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Stir well to dissolve the sugar completely.
Top each mug generously with the Baileys whipped cream, filling approximately one-third of the cup's height with the whipped cream layer. Serve immediately and enjoy by sipping the hot coffee through the cool, creamy topping.
