Easter 2017 Recipes, Party Ideas, Menus, and More

This cake tastes like a strawberry malted milkshake. The white chocolate nest? That just makes it irresistible.

This is exactly what you want to serve for Easter dessert.

A perfect meringue dessert, with its fissures and epic swirls, also presents a beautiful landscape for garnishes. If you were able to shrink yourself to approximately one inch tall, this dessert would be the gnarliest surf breaks frozen in time.

Just look at those cute little hard-boiled eggs peeking through the puff-pastry windowpane! 🐣

Ask your butcher for lamb backstraps, an interior cut from the loin that is lean and exceedingly tender.

Given my very high regard for a grilled naked lamb chop, all juicy and charred, when I do go for something more elaborate, it's got to be worth it. This dish is. Here, the meat is coated in toasted whole spices—fennel, coriander, and cumin seeds—that have been very lightly crushed. The seeds retain their texture, giving the meat both a heady scent and a good crunch. For serving, a tahini-lemon sauce adds a rich nuttiness, while a dash of sumac provides its berrylike tartness.
