PinEaster should be full of colours. Time to get rid of the winter blahs and make room for SPRING! Easter nest cookies are fun to make and are no-bake too. The perfect place for the Easter bunny to stash some treats. Maybe Cadbury creme eggs?
RECIPE and INSTRUCTIONS for this lemon ice cream can be found at the bottom of this post.
I always equate Easter with lemon desserts. Maybe it is the colour? Maybe it is the taste? Lemon Polenta Cake is easy, delicious, and makes a great presentation. Full of lemon flavour, and it just happens to be gluten-free too.
Speaking of lemon, I could eat homemade lemon curd by the spoonful. The perfect topping on fresh-baked scones, biscuits, or even toast. You can even use it in parfaits too.
Looking for a bakery-style dessert to serve your guest? How about Lemon Tarts? Shortcrust pastry that is filled with lemon curd. OMG, they are so delicious.
When I was a child, we often had a dessert I like to call Spring Delight. I took the flavours of this family favourite and created this fun and easy recipe.
We also enjoyed this traditional Ukrainian Cheesecake at Easter too.
