Yes! Baileys adds a rich, creamy flavor with hints of chocolate and vanilla that pairs perfectly with brownies. The alcohol mostly bakes off, leaving behind its signature taste.
They’ll have a subtle Baileys flavor, but the alcohol content evaporates during baking, so you’re left with a smooth, creamy finish—not a strong boozy taste.
