Dubliner and cheddar cheeses are mixed into a traditional Irish soda bread recipe to make Cheesy Irish Soda Bread. So simple to make and tastes amazing!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Is everyone wearing their green today? I have on a green cardigan 🙂 And I have a delicious Irish recipe to share with you – Cheesy Irish Soda Bread! I took a traditional Irish Soda Bread recipe and stuffed it full of Kerrygold Dubliner cheese, and then topped it with some cheddar because you can never have too much cheese! This bread is so easy to make and tastes absolutely amazing. The smell in your kitchen while this is baking is unreal!

Guinness Chocolate Donuts with Baileys Icing

March 12, 2015 by Cate 21 Comments

Boozy breakfast at its finest – Guinness Chocolate Donuts with Baileys Icing are the perfect treat for St. Patrick’s Day brunch!

Two Guinness posts in a row…it must mean that St. Patrick’s Day is almost here! Or that Guinness was on sale at the market. Or both 🙂 TheBetterHalf and I are both Irish and we went to Notre Dame, so we are big fans of St. Patrick’s Day. What’s not to love about a holiday that allows you to have both Guinness and Baileys for breakfast?

These Guinness Chocolate Donuts are similar to the donuts I made last year, but I changed up the icing to a Baileys chocolate ganache icing. It is SO good!!

Guinness Stout Chocolate Donuts #KissMeImIrish

March 12, 2014 by Cate 59 Comments

Guinness Stout beer in the batter and the icing really makes the chocolate flavor shine in these baked donuts. Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day breakfast!
Who wants Guinness for breakfast?! Ok I know, it sounds kind of weird. And I felt strange cracking open a beer at 8am. But let me tell you – it tastes amazing in these donuts! You can’t really taste beer, it just brings out the chocolate flavor. And, I can’t think of a better way to celebrate St. Patrick’s day than with Guinness and sprinkles.

When my friend Connie over at URBAN BAKES invited me to her #KissMeImIrish St. Patrick’s Day blog party, I was so in! 12 of us made fun St. Patrick’s Day treats for you – and they all include alcohol! That was actually a total coincidence – great minds think alike. Links to all the delicious recipes are at the bottom of the post, so make sure to check them out.

Fun and festive sprinkles are added to a classic chocolate chip cookie, making these delicious funfetti cookies perfect for St. Patrick’s Day!

Good morning! Apparently it is National Pancake Day. I’m not sure how I missed that one – TheBetterHalf just emailed me to let me know! As the pancake queen, I’m kind of upset with myself for not knowing about this awesome holiday. I might have to eat a plate of these for dinner to make myself feel better. Or these. Or these.

So I don’t have pancakes to share with you today, but at least I have the next best thing – cookies! I am on a roll with the St. Patrick’s Day recipes. I just can’t help myself – I will take any excuse I can to make fun and festive treats. I posted these Irish Cream Cheesecake Brownies the other day, and today I have St. Patrick’s Day funfetti chocolate chip cookies for you!
