You might have guessed I would be making something like this for St Patrick's Day going by my Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies and my Strawberry Chocolate Chip cookies. You all loved those cookies especially the Strawberry Chocolate Cookies. Those cookies have fast become one of the most popular recipes on the blog and that's exactly why I decided to share these St Patrick's Day Cookies with you all.

What is St Patrick's Day?

St Patrick's Day is an Irish National holiday which commemorates the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. Ireland is a Catholic Country and St Patrick is their Patron saint. St Patrick's Day is celebrated every year on the 17th of March not only in Ireland but also in the United states. I was curious as to the relationship of the color GREEN to St Patrick's Day and I found this interesting article.

Why You Should make these St Patrick's Day Cookies.

During the school year there are usually a lot of mini class parties for the kids celebrating various occasions. Like Christmas, Valentine's Day, etc. St Patrick's day is one of those occasions for which they may have a mini class party. And a mini class party calls for a collection of treats donated by parents.

The Children are asked to wear the color theme of the party which in this case would be Green. This would definitely be a nice time to go pick up something nice and green from Children's Place (you get free-shipping with no minimum order plus a $10 off your first purchase Terms & Conditions apply) or Carters those are my favorite places to shop for my kiddos.

What is the difference between these St Patrick's day cookies and the other Chocolate Chip cookies on the blog?

The color GREEN ?. Besides green, there are a few differences in the method. These St Patrick's Day Cookies are a bit more airy and 'cakey' than the other chocolate chip cookies on the blog. And why is this so?

In this recipe I didn't use melted butter instead I creamed the butter and sugar as I would for a cake until it was light and fluffy. Baking chocolate chip cookies with melted butter makes it dense and chewy which I totally love. Psst I love the texture of these ones too. The good thing is I can choose to make chocolate chip cookies However and whenever ????.
