Bailey’s Pinwheels and Bailey’s – Espresso Jigglers

August 17, 2011 by Lois Britton 5 Comments

Somewhere on the Internet, I saw Bailey’s made into little dessert cubes with gelatin.  That has been in the back of my mind for months.  So when I saw marshmallow pinwheels for kids, Baily’s Pinwheels for adults couldn’t be far behind.  Even though I used plain gelatin and reduced the marshmallows, they’re still very sweet, but what a pretty presentation.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon plain gelatin
1/2 cup Bailey’s
1 cup marshmallows

Directions

  • In a saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over Bailey’s
  • Warm over low heat until gelatin dissolves
  • Add marshmallows, stir until they dissolve
  • Spray 8 or 9 inch square pan with nonstick spray
  • Pour mixture into prepared pan
  • Chill for 4 hours
  • Remove from pan, and roll up
  • Wrap thread around the roll, cross over the top and pull to cut clean slices
 
While I was playing with Bailey’s and gelatin, I came across this blog post with beautiful photos.  I’ll need better molds and more patience to even come close but this did inspire my Bailey’s – Espresso Jigglers.
Ingredients
1/2 cup espresso
1 1/2 tablespoon gelatin

1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup Bailey’s

Directions

  • In a small saucepan, heat espresso
  • Sprinkle gelatin and sugar over espresso, stirring until dissolved
  • Remove from heat and add Bailey’s
  • Spray mold (I used a very small non-silicon ice cube tray, a silicon mold would have been better) with nonstick spray and fill with mixture
  • Refrigerate for 4 hours before unmolding

    What a wonderful idea. I have yet to experiment with gelatine… but I’m planning to do so soon – this would be a great place to start!

    This is an amazing idea! Would you mind if I tinkered with this and maybe used it on NB sometime (linked to you, of course)? No pressure, this is just so unique and very tasty looking!

    […] Ogórki Kiszone are much loved, and I was fortunate to be given jars of brine preserved cukes twice. The first jar came from my friend Elzbieta, her mother makes them every year. The second came from a young man, an engineering student at our Poznan’s Politechnika University, and a waiter at our local TGI Fridays. We would chat at Fridays, and occasionally run into each other at a party in our neighborhood. At some point, we got on the subject of Ogórki Kiszone, and the next time I saw him, he brought me a jar of his mother’s preserved cucumbers. Apparently, he had multiple jars stashed in his dorm room. I returned the favor at our next meeting with samples of a few things I’ve been whipping up in the kitchen, almond cookies, and his favorite Bailey’s pinwheels. […]
