Baileys/Punkins Muck
We make 'Muck' every xmas, it's a homemade Baileys i've been making for 20 years with cheap scotch.
Gets guzzled by the bottlefull at xmas and it's not hard to go through a lot with the family home.

Care to elaborate Punkin? I made a baileys knock off once, it contained egg.......it didn't really wet my wick to say the least.

I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you posted the recipe on his behalf.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
Finally found the bastard
Baileys.
Whip 3 farm eggs till fluffy.
Keep beating with the mixer as you add...
Add 2 cups DWWWG (or other 40%)
1 can sweetened condensed milk,
about the same of thick cream
1 tablespoon of chocolate topping
1 teaspoon of good vannilla extract.
Shake before pouring over ice...
We only usually make it at xmas time, because it's just too good, we'd be fat as fools if we drank it all year.
Beautiful as a small heartstarter after your morning coffee over the holidays
Hope you dont mind Punkin.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
No you're very welcome. The recipe was a gift to me almost thirty years ago. Afraid it'll be the one that never ground Coops cogs though.
Duuno how long it keeps as we've never had to test shelf life out

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
I'll give it a crack again....last time I did it I used the smelly, cheap battery hen eggs. I reckon if I use some nice fresh free range ones it will be a whole lot different.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
I like it straight from the bottle on an ice cube, mate, but the girls like it diluted with milk as in Baileys. I think it may be a texture thing with them (as well as hitting em like a ball-peen up the forehead). You may be a milk man....

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
Whole eggs. Whip em till they're big and frothy, but not till they curdle or get stiff.
Chocolate Topping in Aus= Chocolate Syrup. I've never tried, but i have some very fancy gourmet chocolate brandy dessert syrups here that i reckon would go a treat.
Keep in fridge.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
the muck did not make it a day
the wife wants to try it with half and half instead of heavy cream and double the chocolate...jeez lol. the best part is making itcustom to her taste...she felt 100 proof was a bit much tho so next time 40% will be used and i'll use ujssm instead. good god i love this place.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
It takes a day or two to meld together and get the tastes combined. If she loved it fresh, she'll love it more next day or two days hence. 40% is the right mix or even 35%.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
The Muck recipe was originally written with scotch as the spirit ingredient. i've tried it with scotch, bourbon, rum and last year with ujsm and DWWG.
Never tried it with neutral, but no reason why it wouldn't work. Play around, come up with what you like, call it your own.

Re: Top Shelf Cream Liquers
I'd like to recommend Muck for the Tried and True section. I made a 1/2 gallon of it according to the recipe Rudi posted. That was 3 days ago. It's gone already and I'm out of DWWG.

Re: Baileys/Punkins Muck
followed the recipie and something has gone wrong
I think the cream curdled, perhaps I should have added it last.
followed the instructions with exception of using half whipping cream and half milk instead of heavy cream.
I added the milk/cream before the sweatened condensed milk.
I used the last of my all grain whiskey to make this and It'd be a shame to waste..
it tastes nice, but the "curd" has a very nasty texture.
any hints?

Re: Baileys/Punkins Muck
after filtering it through a reusable coffee filter three times, it has turned out very nice.
as for the "curd", it seems to be butter.
looks as though i over beat the concoction.

Re: Baileys/Punkins Muck
Was gunna apologise for not describing it properly, but it's there...
Add the ingredients in the order they're listed while the beater is going and you won't have a problem with curdling.

Re: Baileys/Punkins Muck
was wondering if it wouldn't be better to pitch the whiskey in at the end.
next time.
with a little modification I think this would make a nice rum cream.

Re: Baileys/Punkins Muck
I THINK RUM WOULD BE NICE damm caps the 100proof neutral was kinda stout and was sharp tasting, the 84proof ujssm was/is soooo good. i think this recipe can just be adjusted to what suits your own tastes. i preferd double the chocolate, me personaly "muck" is better than any off the shelf you could buy. punkin many thanks to you and the others on the board for all the help and great ideas.
p.s.
my chickens kinda look at me funny now.....i found no feathers but.......i still get creepy looks. i really need to cut back

Re: Baileys/Punkins Muck
this is some very nice stuff, and easy to make.
had to try it out, my mother loves baileys on ice, so I figured this'd make her christmas, and get me out of the doghouse for teaching my stepdad to distill.
Thanks Punkin
