If you want to make a simple and delicious dessert for St. Patrick’s Day, you’ll want to make these Easy St. Patrick’s Day Cookies. I made these cookies for a friend get together and everyone enjoyed them. They loved that the cookies were green and festive, and they loved that the cookies tasted really good. I made sure to leave some of the cookies behind for the family since they loved them so much.
While making the cookies, the one thing I wished that I had purchased was a cookie dough scooper to help make the cookies into perfectly round balls, and it would have helped so my hands wouldn’t get as messy. They were definitely worth making, and these Easy St. Patrick’s Day Cookies will now be a family St. Patrick’s Day tradition.
