Steps:

• Place back in oven for 5 more minutes then remove. Allow to cool for a minute or 2, then enjoy.
• The parsley leaves are used to look like little 3 leaf clovers. I made these for St. Patty's day '07 to add as a fun side dish for the Irish potato soup I made. (I'll be adding that recipe later on--it's delish). happy baking :-).
• ps. If you are lucky enough to have an international store local to you, Irish butter goes great with these. We did and it's wonderful--very lite texture and creamier than regular butter.
