Soft and chewy Lucky Charms cookies that are easy to make and perfect for any St.Patrick’s Day parties or celebrations! 

Lucky Charm Cookies | Sprinkles For Cookies

As a kid, Lucky Charms was my favorite cereal. And yes, I was totally the kid that picked out all the marshmallows while nobody else was looking.

As an adult, I try really hard not to be the jerk who picks out the marshmallows – because nobody likes that person. Instead, I decided to create recipes where you were required to pick out the marshmallows in order to get the ideal flavor.

Things like these Magical Rainbow Bars where I add extra marshmallows on top for decoration. Or these Mini Lucky Charm Bundt Cakes where you have to add a layer of marshmallows at the bottom of the bundt pan before you put in the rest of cereal mixture. See, it’s all for the good of the recipe!

These Lucky Charm cookies are no different. This recipe requires 2 Cups of Lucky Charms and I like to make sure a majority of those 2 cups are marshmallows! Plus, I add a marshmallow to the top of every cookie for decoration (and maximum marshmallow consumption).

This is a fun and easy recipe that gives you delicious results.

WHY IS TEXTURE IMPORTANT?

Do you have to add the white chocolate drizzle and extra sprinkles? No. But I highly recommend it because it brings the cookie two extra elements of texture. People are always talking about flavor being the most important factor in food. And yes, flavor IS important. But I think texture is an element that is too often overlooked. Think crunchy, smooth, crispy. These are common words we use to describe some of our favorite foods. And guess what? They have nothing to do with flavor. They are all about TEXTURE. People are so hyper-focused on the flavor, they don’t even recognize how big a role texture plays in food. When I am coming up with a recipe, I am always trying to add at least two different elements of texture. It makes the food interesting and more enjoyable to eat.

So like I said, in this recipe the white chocolate drizzle and the sprinkle topping is optional. But I think it really adds something special. And if you are really looking to knock it out of the park, these Sugar Crystals are the best sprinkles on the market. They are so thick and crunchy and I am obsessed with them. There is really nothing else like them!

Folklore Era - That time Taylor Swift gave us one of the greatest gifts of the pandemic. This surprise album was a huge departure from the last few eras as she presented us with a much softer indie-folk sound. She embraced a more natural and muted aesthetic and spent a lot of time hanging out in the forest with trees.

Now Folklore and Evermore have similar vibes - but I decided that Folklore should be simple (yet naturey) with a muted color palate. Let me know what you guys think!

The Lover Era. Definitely the most colorful era in Taylor’s career, this album not only focused on romantic love but self-love and inclusivity. With the vibrant visuals, music videos, and upbeat pop songs I created a pink and blue watercolor look for this cake with a lot of pink accents (I am obsessed with the glitter heart). I also attempted a new technique (the ripped edge) and then decided at the end to change the paint color from blue to pink. Because sometimes we change our minds. And that’s ok.

Let me know what you guys think!

Taylor Swift Eras Cake Series - The Reputation Era. This is definitely my favorite cake of the series, but also my favorite era. Becuase while it looked all dark and moody on the outside, the album itself is really about her finding herself and falling in love. It also has some amazing full-volume car-dancing pop songs on there. For the cake, I obviously leaned into the dark and moody vibe and made sure to give a shoutout to the zombie Taylor and the snake 🐍 (which she brilliantly owned in this era). I am also pretty obsessed with the REP letters on this cake. Let me know what you guys think!

Taylor Swift Eras Cake Series- The 1989 Era. With the release of 1989, Taylor went from Nashville country darling to a New York City Pop Queen. As her first full pop album, 1989 was super fun and flirty, and it had some serious hits on it. The album imagery was heavily focused on polaroids - so I decided to lean into that for my cake design. By week three of trying to make these things, I was very much regretting that decision. It turns out that making an edible polaroid to stay on the side of a cake is a LOT harder than it looks. But I am pretty obsessed with the topper in this cake.

Taylor Swift Eras Cake Series - The Red Era. Does anyone else feel like she was always wearing a hat in this era? Or is that just me?

This was the era where Taylor transformed from a country princess to a true Pop Star. With this album, she experimented with a wide variety of genres, secured her first number-one single, and gave us the best breakup song…like, ever.

Also, shoutout to my favorite performance when she ROCKED out on the piano at the Grammy’s.

Like the album, this cake has a going on. But I still love it.

Taylor Swift Eras Cake Series - Speak Now Era. This album was 100% written by Taylor. Every single word on there is hers. And to me, it is all about romance - the good, the bad, and the ugly. From the initial excitement of a crush, to being head over heels in love with someone, to then being completely wrecked by that person you thought was your everything. It’s all on there. So for this cake, I wanted to do something fun while also capturing the album’s idealized version of romance. Let me know what you guys think!
