30 Easy & Festive St. Patrick’s Day Cookies Recipes To Try

St. Patrick's Day Cookie Recipes

Emigrants, particularly to the United States, transformed St. Patrick’s Day into a largely secular holiday of festivity and celebration of things Irish. Boston held its first St. Patrick’s Day parade in 1737, followed by New York City in 1762. Since 1962 Chicago has colored its river green to mark the holiday. (Although blue was traditionally associated with St. Patrick’s, green is now commonly connected with the day.) Cookies form an integral part of the dessert recipes on the day and are loved by children and adults alike. We have curated some exciting St. Patrick’s Day Cookie recipes for you that will make your festivities a little more fun and enjoyable.
