Since I discovered this stuff I've become quite addicted...
So, last night I'm making creamed spinach and added this to the roux instead of milk or cream. Wow-- good stuff!
Had the caramel flavor opened, but imagine most of the other flavors would work as well, and I'm taking a mess of it to Thanksgiving dinner.
Very, very simple...
10 lbs spinach (frozen cause it's cheap)
2 sticks butter and flour enough to make a roux (maybe more if needed)
Enough Baileys to make a decent cream base
salt&pepper to taste and add whatever other herbs you like
Maybe a little grated cheese to taste (I'll have to find out how cheese works with the Bailey's)
walnuts and cranberries make nice additions
