I remember Easter with such fond memories. Every year I would wake up with a basket by my bed and the entire house would be riddled with hidden treasures. Chocolate, marshmallows, and Jelly Beans adorned spaces between bricks, books and other normal household décor. But everyone knows, the real treat was finding a coveted Easter Egg. Whether they were plastic and filled with more treats, cream filled with a sweet chocolate shell, or hardboiled and hand-painted by my siblings and I, when the Easter hunt was over, these beauties always garnered the most points.
The egg is a symbol of birth and life. For people of the Jewish faith, for which Passover occurs simultaneously with Easter, it represents promise, while for Christians it embodies resurrection and immortality.
On this Easter, we would like to pay tribute to the egg with some decadent recipes you’re sure to love. Don’t let the names scare you, these appetizers are sure to make your Easter meal a complete success.
See you at the dinner table,
