  6. After 5 minutes of cooling on or in the pan, remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. For Irish Cream Frosting:
  8. Using a hand mixer, beat butter and cheese until light and fluffy. Add sugar and continue beating until smooth, then drizzle in Irish Cream and grated chocolate - blend until smooth. Adjust sugar and cream to desired consistency for spreading. This frosting keeps for several days ahead when stored tightly covered in the refrigerator.
