Boozy Triple Irish Trifle Recipe

Hi there, Renee from Two In the Kitchen here again with another fun St. Patrick’s Day dessert. This indulgence is definitely outside of my norm.  I normally make sweet holiday desserts with kids in mind. But folks, this is not for the kids! With St. Patrick’s Day just around the corner, I thought I would branch out a bit and make a tasty treat that is meant for adults only.
Boozy Triple Irish Trifle Recipe

Ingredients:

  1. 1 box of Devil’s Food Cake (I used Pillsbury)
  2. ingredients as per box instructions (except the water)
  3. 1 c. Guinness Beer plus more for drizzle
  4. 2 8 oz. bars of cream cheese, softened
  5. 1/3 c. Bailey’s Irish Cream
  6. 1 c. powdered sugar
  7. 2 c. cool whip
  8. 1 bag (27-29 pieces) of baking caramels (I used Werthers but Kraft would work fine as well)
  9. 6 TBSP Jameson Irish Whiskey

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9×13 pan with foil and spray it with cooking spray.
  • Prepare cake according to package directions except substitute the water called for in the instructions with 1 cup of Guinness Beer. Bake for approximately 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool.
  • Prepare the cream filling by placing the cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl and mixing until soft and creamy.
