Baileys Cheesecake

This Baileys Cheesecake has a chocolate cookie crust, creamy Baileys cheesecake filling, Baileys chocolate ganache and Baileys whipped cream. The flavor is amazing, the filling is decadent and it’s sure to be a hit!

This cheesecake is very similar to my classic vanilla cheesecake base, with some sour cream swapped out for Baileys. There’s a half cup of Baileys in the filling, which gives it great Baileys flavor without being overpowering. There’s also Baileys in the chocolate ganache and whipped cream. Even when all combined, it’s not too much, but it’s definitely the perfect flavor and SO good!
