📝 Instructions

16 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

2. In a medium-sized saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and chocolate chips together, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

3. Whisk in the granulated sugar until fully combined.

4. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.

5. Stir in the vanilla extract.

6. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

7. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.

9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.

10. While the brownies are cooling, make the Irish cream mousse by whipping the heavy cream and powdered sugar in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Set aside.

11. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then mix in the Irish cream liqueur.

12. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and well combined.

13. Spread the Irish cream mousse evenly over the cooled brownies.

14. Sprinkle the top with dark chocolate shavings for garnish.

15. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mousse is set and chilled.

16. Slice into squares and serve. Enjoy your Irish Cream Brownie Dessert!
