    Smile Need a new Easter dessert, ideas please

    For so many years I have made carrot cake in a bunny shape, coconut "fur", jelly bean eyes etc. for Easter Sunday dinner dessert. The grandkids love it, but need a new idea for the adults. What do you serve? Thanks

    Cheesecake?? I love cheesecake. The cheesecake recipe I use is from food network. If you're interested in cheese pie, I have a recipe for that as well. Lots of ricotta cheese so a bit different texture from cheesecake. Neither are quick desserts though.

    I knew a Bohemian family that had a tradition of making a cake in the shape of a lamb.

    Pineapple upside down cake with fresh whipping cream or lemon squares are always nice for spring. How about a banana split cake?

    I have made strawberry shortcake for our Easter dinner for years. Easter seemed to be the time of year when we could get nice strawberries again. Now we can get berries pretty much all year.

    I have a lemon dessert that has a real fresh taste. Has a crunchy bottom, lemon jello/cream cheese mixture topped with cool whip. Yumm

    I make fresh strawberry pie topped with whipped cream. A light cake good for spring/summer is pig pickin' cake...just google for lots of recipes.

    Almond Joy or one of the many poke cakes are great!

    Grasshopper Pie for me!
    ....the one with whipped evaporated milk mixed with green jello
    in a chocolate cookie crumb crust (pie or oblong pan)
    Of course, any colour jello could be used.

    Light, fresh, and delectable!
