Easy, Cheesy Cheddar–Green Chile Shamrock Pie!

Luck Charms Éclairs—Simple (Green) Saint Patrick's Day Dessert Recipe!

On The GHRI Blog: Easy Four Leaf Clover Pancakes for Saint Patty's Day!

I'm always so impressed by other bloggers' pancake art but the reality is, anything I freehand on a griddle turns into a shapeless blob. So I came up with a solution: Instead of fussing with squeeze bottles and expensive (read: impractical) pancake molds, I make plain-jane round pancakes and then use cookie cutters to cut out the shapes I need—fast and easy! I posted the full step-by-step instructions for how to make these Four Leaf Clover Pancakes on the Good Housekeeping blog—click here to take a look! Do you make pancake shapes for your family!? My mom used to make me Minnie Mouse...(spoiler alert, she looked just like Mickey but I loved it)! xo Erin
