Since it been all about green here the past few days I thought it would be appropriate to revisit a family favorite and traditional holiday recipe. This is a recipe my Grandma McNee used to make for us each St. Patrick's Day We always looked forward to having them. Not only are they so cool but taste delicious! It doesn't matter if I make the original or my lazy version they still bring back great memories of my incredible Grandma. So today I am reposting this recipe in honor of her!! She loved baking and especially being creative on the Holidays.
