Dare to Share #255

It's Friday night, and you know what that means.. 

It is time to Dare to Share! 

This week my friends and I had a movie themed party. 

Since today is St. Patrick's Day, I thought it would be fitting to featured a Shamrock Shake recipe by My Thoughts, Ideas, and Ramblings.  I have not had one yet this year, so it would be really cool if I could make myself one at home. 

I am so excited about the opening of the Beauty and the Beast movie. I hope to watch it this weekend with my friends.  My co-host Kim from Kandy Kreations is excited too. She shared how to make Beauty and the Beast Chocolate Oreos this week.  They would be perfect for a party, or even just watching the movie.  

Now it is time for this week's party. You are welcome to share anything that you would like to share. If you are chosen as a Dare to Share Feature, you post will be featured on the blog and social media.  This party is also seen on Kandy Kreations for double the exposure.  Kim also chooses posts to feature on her blog and social media.  

Link up and HAVE FUN!

Lucky Cupcakes

(this post contains an affiliate link) 

I came across a group of Leprechauns in my kitchen.  They were in such a hurry not to get caught, they left behind their hats filled with gold.

I found this package of mini hats at the dollar store.   Most people would look extremely silly wearing a miniature hat on their head, but I bought them because I had a better idea for them.  They were the perfect size to hold a cupcake. If you can't find these at the store, I did find them here on Amazon. 

I made a batch of cupcakes and let them cool off completely.   I used yellow tinted frosting, yellow sugar and yellow Wilton candies for the gold.

                                  These will be so much fun for St. Patrick's Day.

Leprechaun Bread

                                                       Leprechaun Bread
                                                   

Last year at a girl scout meeting we learned about Fairy Bread.   Fairy Bread is a much loved treat at birthday parties in Australia.    The treat itself is actually very simple. It is a  piece of buttered  bread with the crust removed, covered with a ton of sprinkles.  It is then cut into triangles and served to happy children.  Since Leprechauns are mysterious creatures like the Fairies,  wouldn't it make sense that they would want to serve Leprechaun bread at their St. Patrick's Day get-togethers?

To make Leprechaun Bread, I used only the green sprinkles from a container of red and green Christmas sprinkles.

I just bought some Easter sugar sprinkles at Target this weekend. I decided to try the yellow sugar, and I love the effect. Doesn't it look like little pieces of gold hidden among the green sprinkles?

I added a few larger yellow sprinkles to give it a pop of color. A super easy and fun treat for St. Patrick's Day.
