March is here, and with that plenty of luck is in the air! It is time to celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day and my kids are more than ready. As a matter of fact, we have been busy making our delicious Healthy Shamrock Healthy Shamrock Smoothie and our Pot of Gold Lemonade. Today we focus on a little yummy snack that is easy, quick and fun to do together. Ready for our Leprechaun Approved Chocolate Dipped Wafer Cookies?
The inspiration for these cookies are the adorable fortune cookies half dipped in pink chocolate for Valentine’s Day. You can make these Leprechaun Approved Chocolate Dipped Wafer Cookies ahead of time to surprise the kids and the Leprechauns, or get together 3 ingredients to do them together. They are very simple and a crowd pleaser. Here is how you make them:

Warning: you might need extra sprinkles if you are making these chocolate dipped wafer cookies with the kids. At least mine were very generous with them and we ran out 🙂
Making Leprechaun Approved Chocolate Dipped Wafer Cookies is very easy and as we were making them with the kids, I took advantage to share fun facts about Ireland and test them on the celebration of Saint Patrick’s Day and the symbols of the festivity. As basic as this:
Ireland is known as Emeral Isle
Language: Irish and English
Capital of Ireland: Dublin
Saint Patrick: patron saint of Ireland and there is a cultural/religious celebration to mark his death on March 17th.
Leprechaun: fairy-type mythical character that are men dressed in green hats, coats and knickers. Read more about Leprechauns here
