Any thoughts on Easter dessert?

[curlyred]

My stepmom is cooking a yummy pork crown roast, so I was thinking something fruity......

1. Candy from the granddaughter's basket.

There will be a lot of it.

2. Since I'm the official family dessert maker

I've decided on carrot cake with cream cheese frosting.

3. A fresh fruit tart

with a pastry cream filling, just the thing for spring

4. Trifle, Sort of!!!

I dip hunks of angel food cake in strawberry jello (before it sets) and layer with vanilla pudding, sweetened strawberries (In summer I add peaches and nectarines) and whipped cream. Chill in the fridge for several hours until the jello sets.

I use a tall clear bowl so it looks very pretty.

I do a dusting of shaved chocolate on top.

There are many variations on this theme. You can do a quick tiramisu by dipping angel food cake into kaluha, mix some mascarpone cheese into your whipped cream and leave out the fruit.
