Alcohol in Desserts (Uncooked)

Desserts containing uncooked alcohol (like tiramisu soaked in coffee liqueur, bourbon balls, or rum truffles) retain most of their alcohol content. While a single serving typically contains less alcohol than a full drink, be aware that the alcohol is present and count it accordingly. Baked desserts lose most (but not all) of their alcohol during cooking.

Be aware of alcohol content; count toward drinking guidelines
