St. Patrick’s Day baking recipe round-up

My plans for the weekend include dinner with girlfriends, spending time with Erik and Juliet and lots of baking. I have a major baking bug right now and can’t wait to roll up my sleeves in the kitchen. Hopefully Juliet will feel like joining me.

I looked back in the Eat Drink Pretty archives and found this post on mixed berry Irish scones. I remembered the day I made these scones (one of my first times) and stressed about the texture not being right and that they didn’t turn out as I hoped. But then I added jam and cream and the scones transformed. They were so delicious. Even though I made these years ago I can still remember exactly how they tasted.

And then there is bread baking, a favorite of mine. I’m eyeing that Irish butter soda bread.

And how can you go wrong with desserts? My mom’s famous pistachio dessert isn’t technically Irish, but it is green so there you go. A perfect St. Patrick’s Day dessert.

St. Patrick’s Day baking recipes:

Irish butter shortbread
Irish brown soda bread
Irish coffee cupcakes  
Mixed berry Irish scones
Lime squares with pistachio graham cracker crust
Pistachio dessert 

Do you have any plans for the weekend to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? We will be laying low for the most part but then on Monday my ad agency will be throwing a big party with a band, booze and traditional food. I’m looking forward to it. My work knows how to throw a damn good party.

Happy Friday.

    I agree. I haven't made them yet but they are definitely on the list.
