Happy Monday!  Did you have a nice weekend?  We finally received some much-needed rain here in Southern California … snow in the mountains too!  It’s March already and St. Patrick’s Day is around the corner.  Last Friday, I shared my Rainbow Cronuts with you and promised Chocolate Pots of Gold.

Can you tell what I used?  I thought that it was very appropriate that you would find a donut pot of gold at the end of a cronut rainbow 😉

These were fun to make and were very popular with everyone, especially with the kids in the neighborhood!  Using store-bought donuts, chocolate and Sixlets made the project especially fast and easy!

  4. Happy St. Patty’s day to you! Great little pots of gold. I thought these pots of gold were so much bigger until I read your ingredient list, like HUGE. I am glad they are just little treat bites-just perfect. Take care, BAM
