Think outside the glass with these St. Patrick's Day desserts
22.05.12
BOSTON (RNN) - Around the world, 10 million glasses of Guinness are consumed every day. Some 2,300 glasses of Bailey's are enjoyed every minute. Those numbers go through the roof on St. Patrick's Day.
For those looking to indulge this March 17, you may just want to think outside of the glass, says Meghan McGarry, celebrated Buttercream Blondie blogger.
The daughter of an Irish father and Irish-American mother would know. A big circle has always been around March 17 on her annual calendar.
"Let's just say St. Patrick's Day is very big in my family," the celebrated pastry chef says.
In the Bronx neighborhood where McGarry grew up, the streets are lined with Irish pubs and restaurants and stores that sell every piece of Irish candy imaginable.
In honor of her Irish roots, the pastry chef has gathered the tastes of Woodlawn, where she grew up, and performed a sophisticated, adult makeover of three classic desserts: blondies, cookies and cupcakes.
