I was happy to have the opportunity to review Duncan Hines products! I received Lemon cake mix and Brownie mix. Above are some delicious St. Patty's Day Recipes to make with these two Duncan Hines products. Check 'em out!

I love to make brownies, cakes and cupcakes. Just the other day my daughter and I made cupcakes together! We also love to make the family style brownies with 3 eggs instead of 2, so they are cake like. 

Pick up some Duncan Hines products today and make some yummy St Patty's Day treats!

*I received 2 Duncan Hines products to facilitate my candid and honest review. No other form of compensation was or will be given. All personal views are my own!
