Baileys Chocolate Cream Pie is an adult dessert made with an Oreo cookie crust that is filled with a chocolate cheesecake flavored with Baileys Irish Cream. If you love Baileys, be sure to try my Drunken Snowman cocktail for another fun and tasty adult treat.
Baileys Chocolate Cream Pie
This no-bake dessert will satisfy your sweet tooth, plus give you a little taste (and kick) of Baileys Irish Cream in every bite. It starts with the cookie crust and then the creamy chocolate cheesecake filling. Top it with homemade whipped topping. For a kid-friendly version of the pie, try my Chocolate Heath Pie.
Baileys Chocolate Cream Pie Ingredients
Oreo Cookies: For the crust, crush 24 Oreo cookies, including the filling. I like to use a food processor to get the finest crumb.
Cream Cheese: It’s very important to make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before using. This will give you a smooth and creamy consistency for the perfect cheesecake texture.
Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur: This is an alcoholic beverage made with cream, cocoa, and Irish whiskey. It is delicious on its own, over ice, in coffee, or, of course, in this dessert.
Whipped Topping: Whipped topping, like cool whip, is used to give the cheesecake a light and fluffy consistency, so be sure to fold it in gently in the last step. If you don’t have any on hand, make your own homemade whipped topping. It’s also used to top the dessert.
How to Store
This Baileys Chocolate Cream Pie is best stored in an airtight container in the fridge and will last up to 5 days.
Can I Freeze No-Bake Cheesecakes?
Yes! Just like a baked cheesecake, this cheesecake freezes well. Without any toppings, wrap the cheesecake in plastic wrap. Then, wrap it up in aluminum foil. Label and date the cheesecake and store it in the freezer for up to 6 months. When ready to eat, take it out of the freezer, remove the aluminum foil (but leave it wrapped in plastic wrap), and let it thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature.

Hi, is the cocoa powder sweetened or unsweetened? Thank you
Hi, Carleton! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. We used Dutch-processed cocoa in this recipe. I hope this helps, and have a great day!
Making this pie for a little St. Patrick’s day treat. Always delicious recipes!
What can I use instead of the baileyโs Irish cream
Wish yโall would put what you can use instead of alcohol
If people don’t want to use alcohol, make a different pie. It has Bailey’s in the name. BETTY
Love and would like to receive more from you
My kids loved this! So easy to make. Thanks for a great treat!
outstanding husband ate half pie
You could use Baileyโs Irish coffee creamer from the refrigerated flavored creamer section of the grocery store.
For those wanting the flavor of Irish cream, but not the alcohol, there is a company called Toranis who makes a non-alcoholic syrup that companies like Starbucks use to flavor their coffees. It is readily available here in California, but can be purchased directly from the company and probably through Amazon. I use it for my desserts. It is sweet, so adjust the recipe accordingly.
My hubbyโs favorite dessert is chocolate pie so Iโm always looking for different versions to make him. I made this one for his birthday this year and he absolutely loved it! It is so creamy and deliciously rich with just a touch of Irish Cream flavor. And it was even better the next day! Thanks for the wonderful recipe!!
