Are you cooking something special for this St. Patrick’s Day? I got you covered! These Green Buttercream Cookies are so easy to make and look really cute. They would be perfect for a St. Patrick’s Day themed tea party.
I used some leftover green buttercream for these, but if you don’t have any, you can mix some green colouring into your vanilla buttercream and use that. My kids love cookies and they simply devoured these.
