Easter

Warning: This tart is best when consumed within a few hours of emerging from the oven. We don't see this as being a problem. We suspect you won't either.

This cake, a nod not just to Queen Victoria but British sensibility, defines the very notion of simple yet sophisticated.

Strange how such a sweetly stunning sensation can be just sugar, cream, flour, and vanilla. Couldn't be easier—or more enticing.

These perfect little meringue cookies sandwich a dreamy whipped cream filling and are so airy they literally dissipate into nothing but loveliness.

A creamy, milky, not egregiously sweet, altogether lovely argument for sticking with a classic—in this case, a Spanish classic.

Plain and perfect, that's what we consider this simple roast lamb recipe. And in a shorter cooking time than usual and with very little fuss.

Sure, you could traipse to a bakery and buy brioche rather than make them yourself. But where’s the satisfaction in that?

A classic chocolate cake on caffeine, this impressive yet easy to assemble stack of chocolatey elegance takes its rounded chocolatey-ness from a cup of joe and its ample fudgy-ness fro ganache.

Ah, sassafras. It plays oh so nicely with ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and anise to enhance the smoky, salty goodness of glazed ham.

Made in traditional Italian fashion with a garlic, rosemary, lemon, and olive oil marinade and then roasted until perfectly tender. Perfect for easy, elegant holiday entertaining.

This incredibly indulgent yet not too sweet dessert is crazy rich despite being made with just pantry staples and very little work. Don't skip the game-changing dollop of bourbon-spiked whipped cream.

Not too sweet and not too dense, this honeyed pistachio pound cake is just right—and just large enough to share.

This Southern classic is an oh so sweet and charming stack of pineapple, coconut, bananas, and pecans slathered with cream cheese frosting.

This American classic is, in a nod to its Southern origins, hospitable as can be thanks to vanilla cake layers with a meringue frosting that conceals a creamy filling containing--surprise!--coconut, Maraschino cherry, and oatmeal cookie crumbs.

If you're a pickled eggs virgin, you're in for something quite special—and not just because these little lovelies are so spectacularly pretty in pink.

Made with the requisite mustard and mayonnaise for classic deviled egg traditionalists. And bacon drippings and Sriracha for the rebels in the rest of us.

"As perfect as perfect can be." And "A pretty killer combination of broccoli and Cheddar." That's what folks are saying about this quiche recipe. We think you'll agree.

We love this ham not just for its peachy keen glaze that's sweet but not too sweet but for the fact that the entire thing can be made in an Instant Pot (or pressure cooker) in less than an hour.

This towering traditional Easter bread bedecked with icing and sprinkles is easily recognizable. A hint of cardamom and saffron along with a dreamily delicate texture are what leave a lasting impression.

Kids can't resist these sweet little somethings. That includes the kid in all of us.
