    Mini Pots of Gold

    I found this recipe in a magazine at the supermarket called PIL Cookbooks, Irish Favorites. My original idea was to make brownie bowls and use yellow cake balls for the gold. Then I figured I better stick to the recipe, otherwise I may be up all night baking. Turns out that was a good decision as these pots of gold were super easy and delicious. Teachers – they would be a great treat to go along with a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day story. [gmc_recipe 2498]
