Huge, soft green mint chocolate chip cookies are just what you need for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day. It’s a holiday that I don’t do much for, much to my children’s chagrin, but these cookies are totally in my wheelhouse!
I failed HARD last St Patrick’s day. You guys, my kids are older, who knew it would break some hearts to not make something green for St Paddy’s? I bought Lucky Charms that turn the milk green, I thought that would be so fun since I never buy marshmallow cereal. (No judgments if you do, I just hate that as they are putting away cereal bowls they are already asking for a snack because it didn’t fill them up.)
I mean, ok I do have a little guy, but he wasn’t even the upset one, it was the 10 going on 11 year old that was so sad. Yeash. I busted out some green cookies, borrowed a gold spray painted box from the neighbor and Cade bought all sorts of green candies and even pop to stuff inside.
I’ll probably never go to that extent again, it’s just not my holiday, but the winner of the night did in fact end up being these cookies and I just had to share them with all of you this year.
