I know I sound like every other person ever but I really cannot believe it is already March and that today is Fat Tuesday. Erin and I were raised Catholic, so when we were younger, this is the day we would binge on whatever junk food we were going to give up for the next forty days, usually candy, chocolate, pop, or bubblegum.
I am not going to give anything up for Lent this year, because frankly, I am as lapsed of a Catholic as you can be, and even if I weren’t, would Jesus REALLY care if I gave up Diet Coke for forty days? He’s all like, “Thanks, Mags, that totes what I died for.” No. BUT. I am going to add some positive things to my life, including some of these amazing desserts. I thought it would be fitting to show off some recipes I am itching to try, seeing as it is Fat Tuesday.
Anything with Nutella is good in my book. Nutella Sandwich Cookies from A Beautiful Mess.
These are “healthy,” so I’m all about it. Coco-Nutty Fudge Treat by Oh Joy!
Double Drizzle Pecan Cookies because DUH. From A Taste of Home.
Mint Macarons by Zoe Bakes. PERFECT FOR SAINT PATTY’S DAY Y’ALL.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Fudge by Buns in My Oven. Just drooling at my desk.
If you have any amazing recipes that I need to try ASAP (I have an absurd amount of brown sugar at my house for some reason, so anything that involves that will be good,) please share them! Or just drool over these photos, whichever you prefer.
