85 Easy Easter Desserts Sweeter Than Anything You'll Find Egg Hunting
Even the Easter Bunny will be jealous.
♪ Hippity-hoppity, Easter's on its way ♪ and boy, are we excited to see what sweets end up in our Easter baskets this year. If you're like us, we bet you're also looking forward to whipping up some homemade treats and show-stopping desserts to go along with your Peeps, Robin's Eggs, and massive chocolate bunnies too. If so, this list of 85 Easter desserts is for you. From impressive layer cakes to fudge, from blondies to fruity cheesecakes, there's something here for everyone, and every type of occasion.
Don’t worry, our love for Easter candy runs strong, so even when we go homemade, we like to pay homage to all the classics. Our Robin's Egg malt fudge, our Easter bunny popcorn bars, our carrot patch brownies and cheesecake, or our Peeps s’mores skillet all utilize your faves to great effect. Take inspiration from these, and then add whatever you can find in the candy aisle to even more of the recipes here. We bet our chocolate bundt cake, our homemade gelato, our copycat Dairy Queen ice cream cake, or our banana pudding would all benefit from some crunchy, colorful candy.
Looking for something more classic to wow your guests this Easter? Everyone’s been waiting for spring fruits and veggies all winter long, so what better way to celebrate their return than with a show-stopping holiday dessert? Our bunny cake (carrot, ofc!), our pineapple upside-down cake, our rhubarb cake, or our fruit tart always impress. Looking to dazzle your guests, but aren’t the strongest baker? We’ve got you too. Cheesecake bars are always a winner—try our strawberry, coconut, blackberry, or banana pudding versions. They’re just as satisfying, but with much less work.
