It’s that time of year where we start to see a little green everywhere. How about adding chocolate with these Chocolate Lucky Cookies!
I have a really AWESOME giveaway for you so make sure you scroll to the bottom to enter! So about these cookies. How often do you walk through the store and something just screams at you? For me ALL. THE. TIME. Especially because I like to blog about food, so shopping trips are normally about getting ideas, looking for new items. Basically research!
Anyways last year I did this whole Luck of the Irish Week and made some not so traditions soda bread for St. Patrick’s Day. During that week I shared with you some Lucky Sugar Cookies, remember?
As I was walking through a store I saw Chocolate Lucky Charms! Seriously did not know they made those. I also noticed that the marshmallows were clovers and pots of gold!
They box was screaming out my name and I even passed by it 4 times before I actually picked it up. I immediately thought that I could do cookies. But I had not really planned on making anything this year for St. Patrick’s Day. I then thought they would go perfect with this giveaway!

What a fun treat for St. Patrick’s Day! A leprechaun always leaves a trail of coins in our house on St. Patrick’s Day and it would be fun for my kids to find these cookies at the end of the trail.

Kirsten/ComfortablyDomestic
Chocolate Lucky Charms are REAL? That is so cool. I haven’t bought Lucky Charms since I was a teenager. These cookies might just be the right excuse to find them.
Kim Beaulieu
Oh my gosh, I just love these cookies. I’m a cereal fanatic, just wait till you see what I’ve been up to. I’ve been elbow deep in cereal for a week and loving every minute of it. Ha.
Lucky Charms always make me think of my daughter, she used to pick out all the marshmallows then put the box of cereal back. Always cracked me up. Any time I bake with cereal she’ll walk by and snag any marshmallows she can get her hands on. And she’s 21, so they never grow out of it, lol.
I must try these. I’m actually very Irish, yet I never seem to post Irish recipes. It’s just silly.

they all sound so good! I think for dinner I would use seriously delish and then after dessert for two or party popcorn!
Rose | The Clean Dish
That’s a terrific giveaway! I could use some new cook books 🙂 Your cookies look delicious, too! I love the little shamrocks — too cute!
Marsha
Those cookies look fantastic! I’ll have to look when I go shopping and see if they have the chocolate lucky charms. And, I do love cookbooks! I’ve got a huge collection and am always looking to add more.
Shelby @ Go Eat and Repeat
Lucky charms are clearly the best cereal out there, and when combined with a cookie, I am a happy blogger!
