    Vegan Baileys Chocolate Cookies & Cream Parfaits

    Baileys chocolate cookies & cream for breakfast. Bailey' has come up with a vegan version of their sweet creamy liqueur, Bailey' Almande, and I celebrated by building it into a chocolate cookies & cream parfait!  Or swap out the Bailey's for maple syrup and almond milk!

    Vegan Baileys Chocolate Cream Parfaits

    Vegan Baileys Chocolate Cookies & Cream Parfaits

    I remember a coffee shop in Vermont during my college days, there were hanging plants everywhere and blond wood tables. My friends and I loved to visit after long work days, gathering to chat and down the shop's signature drink. That was a tiny dark chocolate cup filled with a sweet Baileys liqueur.

    But then I moved into a plant-based diet, and alas, non-vegan foods went out the window, traditional Baileys included.

    So imagine my joy when I learned that Baileys created a plant-based version, specifically called Baileys Almande, sweet with the special Bailey's flavor and an interesting almond element.

    Right away I thought of those tiny chocolate cups. I decided though this sweet creamy liqueur would be better in a creamy parfait. A kind of chocolate parfait with cookies crumbles and sweet chocolate & vanilla cream with hints of Baileys.

    A Non Alcoholic Cookies & Cream Parfait

    Not to worry if you don't want to add Baileys. Just substitute with almond milk, a tsp of maple syrup and a tsp of vanilla.

    Is There A Vegan Baileys?

    Yes, that's what I used in this recipe. It came out in 2018 and it is delicious.

    Is There A Dairy Free Baileys?

    Yes, a version using honey came out in 2017 but it has honey so it's not vegan.

    How Long Does Vegan Baileys Last?

    About 2 years at room temperature, even if opened.

    What Alcohol is in Baileys?

    Baileys is considered an Irish Cream, so it contains irish cream liqueur, with a creamy base, cocoa and Irish whiskey. It is considered a drink favored by females, more than males, according to VinePair.

    In case you are wondering, this blog post is not sponsored. Baileys sponsored an IG post recently and the reaction was so strong I realized my blog followers too might want to know about this plant-based liquor.

    And so here we are, I hope you take the time to enjoy this little treat! Are you on Pinterest? Perhaps you might like to share this image..

    Cuisine vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free
    Servings 2

    Ingredients
     

    Sweet Cream

    • 1 cup cashews (soaked overnight or use 1 cup light canned coconut milk - it's creamy and light doesn't taste like coconut)
    • ½ cup macadamia nuts (no need to soak) or use more soaked cashews
    • 2 dates pitted
    • ½ cup Baileys Almande "vegan" liqueur Or use almond milk + 1 tsp maple syrup
    • 1 tsp vanilla
    • 1 pinch of salt
    • ¼ cup of almond milk
    • ¼ cup chocolate chips melted

    Whipped Cream Topping

    • 1 can full fat coconut milk
    • 2 tbsp maple syrup

    Instructions
     

    Prep

    • Soak the cashews overnight submerged in water and refrigerated. Rinse the next day before making sweet cream.
      OR use 1 cup of canned light coconut milk instead. Shake the room-temperature can; you don't want it separated.

    Make Sweet Cream

    • Blend all ingredients until creamy.
      Add a little chilled plant milk if the mixture seems too dry. Split the mixture in half.
      Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave at 30 second intervals. Stir the melted chocolate into one half the mixture so you have a portion of sweet cream that is vanilla, and a portion that is chocolate.

    Make the Parfait

    • Crush some chocolate wafer cookies for a bottom layer, spoon the vanilla and chocolate cream in alternating layers.
    • Add whipped cream to a piping bag and tip, and create a spiral on the top of each parfait.
    • Serve chilled and enjoy!
