The Luck Of The Irish...

St. Patrick's Day is a "holiday" most people associate with green beer, oversized hats, and if you're in university/college, the festivities usually started around 9:00am with Guinness pancakes! What most people don't think of when it comes to St. Patty's are all the fun deserts you can make if a) You're not a huge drinker or b) Want something to eat other than beer-soaked pancakes! I would make these cupcakes in University and really had fun with the different varieties you could do.

For instance, one year I tried these 'Shamrock in a Cupcake' designs, and they were adorable. Really effective and surprisingly not too difficult to make, which is always nice.

If you feel like you are in the mood to really wow your friends (hopefully enough so that they'll actually remember eating your delicious delicacies) you can try adding to your cupcakes with cute toppings such as gummies shaped to look like a rainbow and add a chocolate "pot of gold." Check it out ---->. 

I found this cute site that gives you more cupcake ideas. I've checked them over and from what I can tell whether you're an cupcake connoisseur or just bought your first apron, these recipes are beginner friendly. Click the link to see for yourself! St. Patty's Cupcakes
