This cookie is definitely for the older kids. By older kids, I mean those that are 21 and over. In addition the the Kiss me, I'm Irish! Cookies I brought a special cookie for the adults. I added Baileys Irish Cream not only to the cookie dough, but made a glaze out of it too. We had to put a big sign: NOT FOR KIDS! next to these cookies to make sure one wasn't
Once cookies have cooled, drizzle Baileys glaze and dark chocolate over the tops.

Spoon dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake for 8-12 minutes (mine came out perfectly at 11 minutes). Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Mix Baileys into 1/4 cup of powdered sugar ONE teaspoon at a time.
Stir together until your desired consistency is reached.
In a small bowl, melt dark chocolate chips in the microwave (about 40 seconds).

I did attempt to make a four leaf clover on one cookie. That was as fancy as I got.
