These Baileys Chocolate Mint Pudding Parfaits combine the classic flavors of chocolate, mint, and Baileys Irish Cream in one delicious no-bake dessert.

It’s no secret that I love all things Baileys. There’s just something about the rich Irish Cream flavor that mixes especially well with chocolate… and somehow makes everything better! Whether it’s Baileys Chocolate Mousse or Baileys Chocolate Sheet Cake or my dangerously easy Baileys Chocolate Chip Dip, one is more delicious than the next.

And when it comes to these parfaits? Well… they’re quite possibly the MOST delicious. Because the only thing better than Baileys + chocolate is Baileys + chocolate + mint! Especially in the form of an easy no-bake pudding parfait!

It’s the perfect dessert for St. Patrick’s Day or Christmas… and easy enough to whip up in no time at all. And if you’re looking for a kid-friendly option, they can easily be made without alcohol!

what you’ll need for this recipe

Pudding mix – I used 1 small (3.4 ounce) box instant chocolate pudding mix. Be sure to use instant, not cook & serve, for this recipe.
Irish cream – I added 1/2 cup Baileys Irish Cream to the pudding mix.
Milk – I added 1 1/2 cups milk (I used 2%, but for a richer result, use whole milk).
Whipped topping – I used 3 cups Cool Whip. Homemade or store bought will both work well.
Creme de menthe – I added 3 Tablespoons Creme de Menthe liqueur to the Cool Whip. I used green for the pretty color, but you can use clear as well.
Oreos – I used 12 Oreos, crushed. For more minty flavor, use Mint Oreos.
Hot fudge – I drizzled the inside of the parfait glasses with 3 Tablespoons hot fudge sundae topping.
