Hi friend, So many ladies I know are bringing dessert this Easter, and I keep getting asked the same thing: What should I make? And of course I’m happy to share. So I pulled together my Easter dessert recommendations with lots of love in case you’re still deciding what to bring. These are in order of my personal favorites, but honestly, you can’t go wrong. They’re all delicious, and the best choice is the one you’re most excited to make and share. Here are 10 Easter desserts I’d recommend:1. Carrot Cake Dessert CupsThis is probably my favorite because carrot cake just feels like Easter. I love these because you don’t need to frost a whole cake perfectly, they travel really well, and they feel extra special without being fussy. You can even skip the little carrot decoration and use chocolate carrots instead.
2. No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake CupsPerfect for cheesecake lovers who do not want to deal with a cracked cheesecake. These are easy, pretty, and such a good no-bake option.
3. Chocolate Covered Deviled StrawberriesSince deviled eggs are such an Easter classic, this is a really fun dessert twist. They’re filled with a no-bake cheesecake filling and topped with chocolate and pistachios. So good.
4. Easter Magic BarsMy mom always makes these for Christmas, but they’re just as good for Easter. Just swap in Easter-colored M&M’s and you’ve got such a fun, easy dessert bar.
5. Robin’s Egg CupcakesThese are adorable and people really do ooh and ahh over them. You can absolutely use boxed cake mix and a little food coloring to make them easier too.
6. Cannoli PieFor the cannoli lovers, this one is over the top in the best way. It’s no-bake, creamy, and absolutely delicious.
7. Cookie CupsThese are so fun because you can dress them up with your favorite cookies and toppings, and suddenly it looks like you picked them up from a caterer.
8. Fruit and Chocolate BoardSliced fruit and store-bought chocolate come together into something that looks beautiful and feels really effortless.
9. Spring Gluten-Free Vegan BrowniesA great option if you’re serving gluten-free or vegan guests and still want something that feels festive and delicious.
10. 9x13 Strawberry ShortcakeInstead of making individual shortcakes, this easy 9x13 version is moist, simple, and always a crowd favorite.

Hi Reader, There is one thing I always do before summer officially starts. I make a big Thrive Market order. Not because I’m trying to be dramatic about snacks, but because once summer hits, the kids are home, we’re running to the beach, packing picnic lunches, heading to games, going on day trips, and suddenly everyone needs a snack every 14 seconds. And I don’t know about you, but I can never find all the snacks I’m looking for at one store. I’m a little picky when it comes to the snacks I...
Hi Reader, After 10 years of marriage, I finally realized something. Some of the kitchen things we registered for, bought in a rush, or just kept using because they were “fine” were not really my style anymore. My kitchen had become this mix of old plates, random bowls, stained pans, soggy drying mats, and things I used every single day but didn’t actually love. So over the past year, I’ve slowly upgraded the pieces I reach for the most. Not huge renovations. Not anything wild. Just the...
Memorial Day is less than 2 weeks away, which means it’s time to figure out what you’re bringing to the BBQ. And if you’re in charge of a side dish, this is your sign to bring something people are actually excited about. These are the BBQ sides I come back to again and again. The ones inspired by family recipes, old favorites, grocery store splurges I decided to recreate at home, and dishes people still ask me for. Here are 7 Memorial Day sides I’d actually be hyped to bring. #7: Thai Peanut...
