Indulge in the rich decadence of Bailey’s Chocolate Bread, crowned with a luscious Espresso Cream Cheese Glaze. Includes complete cooking instructions and detailed nutritional breakdown.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened chocolate, melted
  • 1 cup Bailey's Irish Cream
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Mix well until all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Step 3: In another bowl, whisk together the melted chocolate, Bailey's Irish Cream, softened butter, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
  4. Step 4: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for about 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  6. Step 6: For the espresso cream cheese glaze, beat together 4 oz of cream cheese, 1 cup powdered sugar, and 2 tablespoons of brewed espresso until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread before serving.

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store any leftover Bailey's Chocolate Bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate for a week.
  • To enjoy the bread warm, simply pop slices in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or toast them lightly in a toaster oven for a delightful treat.
  • This decadent bread pairs beautifully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side, adding an extra layer of indulgence to your dessert experience.
  • When mixing the wet and dry ingredients, be sure to fold gently to maintain a light texture—overmixing can lead to a denser bread that loses its deliciously airy quality.
