Easter treats


I always think that anything is better if it is homemade and hot cross buns are no exception.

These hot cross buns have a soft bread dough with dried fruit and spices and are simple to make. My favourite way to enjoy them is toasted and buttered, but they are just as nice served cold or hot straight from the oven. They can be prepared in advance and frozen and are a real treat.

Here are a few other ideas for treats to enjoy over the Easter weekend.

Cherry cheesecake

Cherry cheesecake has a chocolate crumb crust filled with creamy cheesecake cream and topped with cherry sauce.

White chocolate truffles

These homemade truffles have a creamy, silky texture and make a perfect Easter treat.

Double chocolate cheesecake

This creamy vanilla and walnut fudge is perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth and is simple to make.

Pistachio frangipane

This frangipane tart is made using ground pistachios in place of almonds and makes an attractive dessert.

Chocolate tiffin

This foolproof chocolate tiffin recipe is simple to make, sets in the fridge and does not require baking.

Chocolate salami

Chocolate salami is a fun chocolate treat made to resemble a meat salami and is easy to make.

Chocolate banana truffles

Happy Easter! 🐣
