So easy it's ridiculous...and that's just how a girl like me likes a recipe!
Easy maybe but they are also tasty and festive and
a sweet idea for a St. Patrick's Day treat.
Ingredients
1
roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated sugar cookies
1/4
cup all-purpose flour
1/4
cup green sugar
Directions
1.
Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, break up the cookie dough. Stir or knead in flour until well blended. Work with half the dough at a time; refrigerate remaining dough until needed.
2.
Shape dough into 70 (3/4-inch) balls; reserve 7 balls. Roll each of the remaining balls in green sugar. To form each shamrock, place 2 balls with sides touching and 1 ball on top on ungreased cookie sheets. For stems, divide each reserved ball into 3 pieces. Roll each piece into ball, then in green sugar; shape into a triangle. Place 1 triangle pointed side up at bottom of each cookie between 2 balls for stem.
3.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
And as Grace would like to point out, dunking these babies in
a tall glass of ice cold milk will turn that stuff green! And you can never have enough green on March 17th right?
Love and Hugs,

Yum..... I think I will make these.
ReplyDeleteThese look great. Tell Grace to save me one and i will be right over to have a dunking party with her.
ReplyDeletePerfect timing! Something easy and fun to do with the grand kids! They will love it. Thanks for sharing. Wasn't looking forward to mixing up a batch of sugar cookies.
ReplyDeleteOh and me too, I'll be right over to dunk away in an ice cold glass of green milk as well. ;o)

ReplyDeleteKids love green milk, don't they? When my kids were little, we always had a little green food color in the milk on St. Pat's Day. Enjoy the day!! Sally

ReplyDeleteIf I recall correctly, you created some wonderfully delicious looking things last St. Patrick day as well :o) (While I um, created lemon bars with green glace....good thing they tasted a whole lot better then they looked!)

Hi Susie Q,
ReplyDeleteThese look super easy. They'd be a perfect little treat after my corned beef and cabbage dinner!

These are so cute...I may just have to give them a try.
ReplyDeleteThe mention of green milk made me think back to college when one of my friends "tinted" her milk green so her room mates would think twice before using it!
