For the most part Irish desserts are not at all like American Desserts. Our desserts are very sweet, and theirs are more on the lighter side. Since I have a really big sweet tooth, I tend to serve "green" desserts on St. Patrick's Day. "Green" desserts have nothing to do with helping the environment. They about the color "green". Here are some of my favorite green desserts along with some authentic Irish treats.

Green Popcorn

Pistachio Gelato
I'd never eaten Pistachio Gelato or Ice Cream until I went to Italy. I love it. It's green, so it's great for your St. Patrick's Day celebration.
