An Irish Kiss for Christmas
It’s Christmas, and we’re sharing our friend Bit’s amazing Irish Kiss recipe! The only thing better would be drinking this up with one of her homemade scones.
You can view some of Bit’s great Ireland-related items at www.zazzle.com/cowboycraic. She included her Images of Ireland Office Set as part of our Holiday Giveaway

I am saving my last box for a special couple of visitors in January. That means that I am making mine with Ghiradelli hot cocoa mix instead.
