Yes. That’s right. BAILEYS CHEESECAKE! I can explain why there is another cheesecake recipe – I had oodles and oodles of requests for a Christmas/Baileys cheesecake so how on earth could I disappoint?! Plus – I made this just in time for my Mums birthday, so it doubled up as her birthday cake! See – the perfect excuse. Recipe But what about when you want to add a little something extra to your Baileys? That's where strawberries come in. The Frozen Strawberry Mudslide is a boozy treat made with Bailey’s Strawberries and cream, vodka, coffee liqueur and strawberry ice cream topped with whipped cream, a chocolate drizzle and a chocolate covered strawberry garnish! I recommend using the Bailey’s Strawberries and Cream. However, if you cannot find it or already have regular Bailey’s on hand, then use the regular. If using regular Bailey’s, I do recommend adding in a few fresh strawberries to the blender to get that delightful strawberry flavor in this shake. Bailey's Irish Cream - I love the flavor of classic Bailey's Irish Cream and that's what I like to keep on hand, but you can also use the Bailey's Strawberries and Cream!!

I used mascarpone in this recipe as I thought it went really nicely with the Baileys. You can of course use full fat cream cheese if you would prefer but, like always, it must be FULL FAT! This cheesecake mixture is so silky and so smooth I am just completely obsessed with it! Melt the milk or dark chocolate in the microwave in 30 second increments in a mug, stirring between each until the chocolate is melted.I did not have Valentine’s Day in mind when I first grabbed the ingredients for this Frozen Strawberry Mudslide but it is pretty much the perfect holiday drink just in time with one week until V-day! I see this pretty boozy shake as the perfect after dinner treat to share with a friend or spouse. I want to curl up in a blanket on the couch on sip on this now and ignore the freezing temperatures outside! I can’t be the only who does this… shakes are for year round, especially the adults only kind.

I did struggle to let this cheesecake set properly, because it literally just tasted so good. The mix itself, tastes like strawberry milkshake, and its like a dreamy pink mousse so its hard to resist. It does of course set once in the fridge, but you could try and make a mousse version and I’m sure it’ll still be utterly delicious.Reduce the cream cheese, and add in more double cream and you’ll have a winner!

Frozen Strawberry Mudslide is basically a strawberry shake with added alcohol. You can faintly taste the coffee liquor just giving this drink a bit more depth of flavor. Chocolate drizzle is added for that lovely strawberry and chocolate combo that balances this mudslide out.

But you can also just use your favorite plain vodka (my favorite is Tito's)! White rum would also be a good substitute!
