It's time to break out the Baileys, friends! The Saint Patrick's Day series has arrived, and we're kicking things off with my new favorite blondies! I can fully attest that blondes do have more fun, especially when Baileys is involved! Filled with brown sugar, chunks of Callebaut white chocolate and of course, the good stuff, these Baileys Irish cream blondies are everything a blondie should be and so much more! Go on, take a bite! I guess this was bound to happen. I mean, I'm all about blondies and the Baileys, and introducing the two ...
Irish Coffee Cheesecake
Welcome to the Saint Patrick's Day series, or as I like to call it, the most wonderful time of the year! I've been baking away, testing recipes and making shamrock cookies like it's my job ;) And now it's time to get the party started with a cheesecake that I think might be my best cheesecake to date!

Irish Candy Bar Cupcakes
When I first decided to do this Saint Patrick's Day series, the one product I knew I wanted to include was the Crunchie candy bar. This Irish candy was one of my favorite childhood treats, and I couldn't wait to create a grown up dessert with it. I picked up a few last week along with some Flake bars, another favorite of mine, and got to work. What I came up with is a new cupcake that takes these candy bars to a whole new level. To give you some info on a Crunchie, it is a milk chocolate candy bar with a honeycombed center. It's pretty ...
Irish Coffee Scones with Whiskey Butter

Normally I would look right past a scone and go for some cake, but that all changed last weekend when I made these little gems. I have made five batches since then, I think that says something! I've been on a bit of a Baileys kick lately, and I thought it would be pretty cool if I could put Baileys in a scone. Once this seed was planted in my head, ...
