First I blame Holly for posting this on Facebook, and turning me on to this Booze Bake Cake. The flavor combos seem like they would make a cake that would give a delicious boozy bite experience. If you're not into Booze Bakes, a coffee cream substitution can happen too. Big Win all around! Here's how one Booze Bake turns Bailey's Irish Cream into what sounds like a Boozy Dream Cake Come True. Only time will tell .. Valentine's Day & St. Patrick's Day are coming. We have reasons to bake it, if we needed one... and we don't.
