Happy St. Patriclk's Day!

An Irish Prayer
May God give you...
For every storm, a rainbow
For every tear, a smile
For every care, a promise
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share.
For every sigh, a sweet song
And an answer for each prayer.

My plan was to make the following recipe for dessert tonight.

Baileys Irish Cream Cupcakes
1 box Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Cake Mix
3 Eggs
1/2 C Vegetable Oil
1 C Water
1/4 C Baileys
Mix.  Spoon batter into cupcake liners in pan. Bake.
Icing
4 T Baileys
Confectioners Sugar
8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
Wilton Sprinkles
 Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar and Baileys.
Begin with 2 C powdered sugar and add to desired consistency.

However, we had no Bailey's Irish Cream or cupcake liners or even a cupcake pan that would make more than 12 cupcakes,
So. here is the altered plan.

Baileys Irish Cream Bundt Cake
1 box Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Cake Mix
3 Eggs
1/2 C Vegetable Oil
1 C milk
1/4 C Cream
1 Jigger Jameson Irish Whisky 
Mix together.  Pour into bundt pan. 
Bake at 350 for 40 to 45 minutes.  Cool completely.
Icing
8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
Confectioners Sugar
1 Jigger Baileys
Cream
Mix cream cheese, baileys, cream and sugar together
to desired consistency and spread on cake.
Top with green sprinkles.

 
It was an unbelievably moist & yummy St Pat's dessert! 


Irish Blessing
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be ever at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rain fall softly on your fields
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the
hollow of His hand.
