30 Boozy Desserts That Will Make You Drunk In Love

Adding a little booze to our desserts is kind of our thing and we aren't sure how we didn't add creamy Baileys whisky-based liqueur to truffles sooner. Perfect for your next holiday party to bring along with moscato truffles.

Saturdays don't really begin until the mimosas have been made and now they won't end until a mimosa cupcake has been eaten for dessert. These are a great way to finish off an opened bottle of champagne (if you have any leftover that is).

Want a buzz but not the sting and taste of alcohol? We got you. Boozy milkshakes are about to be your new BFFs, and it doesn't get much better than this Baileys and vanilla vodka-based dream of a dessert. Want even more boozy milkshakes? Try our boozy shamrock shake or boozy chai milkshake.

One pineapple-and-rum-laced bite and you'll feel like you've had the beach vacation of your dreams. Have a Bahama Mama cupcake in one hand and Margarita cupcake in the other!

Popular in the Caribbean, rum cake is a vanilla cake that has rum in the batter. Traditionally, dried fruit is soaked in rum for months and then added to the cake batter, but our quicker version involves a poke cake technique to really incorporate that rich rum flavor.

We much prefer dessert over cocktails, so these easy coconut, pineapple, and rum-based truffles are the best of both worlds. They taste just like your favorite piña colada and are the perfect way to cap off a summer night.

Baileys shouldn't be something you break out only for the holidays. We firmly believe it's one of the best liqueurs to use in dessert (just look at some of these other Baileys recipes). We even put it in oatmeal for a fun breakfast.

Cake and whipped cream is a tried-and-true combination. But a Coke-infused cake with rum-spiked whipped cream? You've got to taste it to believe. This is the gateway to all other alcoholic desserts: soft, spongy cake topped with fluffy whipped cream, drizzled with rich caramel, and drenched with a toppled nip of rum.

To make these cupcakes really feel like a Moscow mule in dessert form, we pour ginger beer straight into the cupcake batter—a hack that lets you skip the eggs, oil, and water that the box calls for, while giving you all of the gingery flavor you love. Don't worry, we didn't forget the vodka—it's in the frosting!

Fun and festive! Maraschino cherries are infused with spicy fireball whisky and marshmallow vodka for a treat your guests won't forget. We love switching up the sprinkles and chocolate on these boozy bombs for any and all holiday occasions.

This light and just-sweet-enough cake is perfect for celebrating birthdays, bridal showers, or maybe just making it through the week. The good news is that you can use the cheapest bubbly possible, and it'll still be delicious. Plus, if you have any left, consider making these adorable champagne truffles.

Baileys and coffee might be our go-to delicious combination, but Baileys in a cookie shot glass? Sign us up. We love the ease of using store-bought cookie dough, but if you've got the time, making chocolate chip cookies from scratch is always better.

Just like our champagne cupcakes, these pretty truffles start with the coolest cake mix hack. You whisk champagne into the batter. Don't worry, not all the booze bakes off—there's also a little bubbly in the frosting.

How much red wine you choose to pour in the blender is entirely up to you—we usually just eyeball it. A fruit-forward red wine like Zinfandel is best for vanilla ice cream, but feel free to experiment with semi-sweet sparkling red wines too, like Lambrusco or Brachetto D'acqui.

After trying Bloody Mary pops, we are convinced that popsicles are one of the most fun ways to get our drink on. Add your favorite fruits and citrus juice (we love grapefruit juice and lemonade for these).

Get the Prosecco Pops recipe.

The filling tastes like a cross between a slice of cheesecake and a piña colada. If you're bringing these to a party with little ones, feel free to skip the booze; they'll taste just as great.

Sure, Kahlúa is great in coffee, but it's even better in cupcakes. We added both coffee and Kahlúa to a boxed cake mix for a true triple threat. Top them off with a chocolate-covered espresso bean.

Dole Whip is one of our favorite creamy, refreshing ways to get through the summer heat. But turning it into both a boozy and easy handheld treat? We had to go there.

This bright, zesty tequila-laced frosting tastes just like your favorite margarita. Add a sprinkle of coarse sea salt and a cut straw (obviously) for the cutest touch.

Pro tip: When it comes to frosting cupcakes, most of the time we don’t fuss with piping tips. We simply put the frosting in a resealable plastic bag and snip off a big corner so we have a wide opening that’s super easy to maneuver.

Bubbly champagne and light, fruity sherbet is a match made in heaven. A white chocolate, sprinkle-covered rim will make you feel all kinds of deluxe. Feel free to use your favorite Champagne or Prosecco for this festive dessert.
