So grab a few of these recipes and enjoy the day just a little bit more.
1. Corned Beef (Glazed)

You’re getting the glazed sweet version of it and that honestly sounds so good!

Also, this serves 6 and takes just 10 minutes of prep time, so I’d say it’s worth your time!

I’ve always been a fan of Rice Krispy treats, so I’d definitely be down for trying the Lucky Charms version!
It’s such a simple recipe and… it includes butter. Gonna be honest with you right now, that sounds so satisfyingly good!
Oh also, it’s just 12 total minutes to make this dessert and yields 16 bars, so I think this is clear winner.
