Besides the Easter egg hunts and the color dye on the famous hard-boiled eggs, Easter is known for being a holiday where people of all ages choose to stuff their faces with Robin Eggs, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and an abundance of other sugary candies. This Easter, try these different foods that go beyond the average holiday candy and will satisfy your candy cravings!

1. Carrot Cake Topped Off with a Cream Cheese

This option is a delicious alternative that fulfills the sweet and savory flavor that an old, ordinary piece of chocolate would leave behind. It doesn’t require a lot of time to make and won’t leave you feeling too “sugared out.” There are many different recipes to choose from, either from your Pinterest feed, online, or your family’s cookbook.

2. Mini No-Bake White Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecakes

Even though this is a more time-consuming dessert to create, it makes for a great treat for your Easter parties. It may seem like a complicated dessert but is actually labeled as an easy treat that anyone can make. All you need is a few simple ingredients to create this festive dessert.

3.  Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream

Don’t be fooled thinking that this dessert can only be made by professionals. This goody can be recreated in less than ten short minutes. Not only does it taste delicious, but it also looks like Spring in a bowl.

4.   Easter Oreo Bark

Let’s face it: all candy bark is amazing. So why not create an Easter bark? This is another Easter treat that is fairly easy to recreate. It will also add a unique touch to your celebrations. Yes, although it does consist of some candy (M&M’s and Oreos), it goes beyond that of the ordinary candy

5.   Confetti Bars

This dessert is made up of some of our favorite spring goodies: Spring M&M’s, marshmallows, chocolate chips, and sprinkles. Not to mention, this is all thrown on top of a white chocolate cookie dough. Although it may take more time, I think it is safe to say that it is definitely worth it.

6.   Lemon Bars

You can never go wrong with lemon bars. Similar to the carrot cake, this is a treat that you can find all over the internet. To make it more of your own, you can add your own twist on it to make it even more unique and different. This is an Easter treat that your guests are sure to love.

7.   Peeps Pops

Many people still consider Peeps the epitome of Easter candy. However, these Peeps pops take it one step further. All that is required is melted chocolate, graham crackers or sprinkles, and lollipop sticks. Certainly, these are cake pops on steroids.

The Easter season is depicted by loads of sugary candy and is usually the reason why no one can eat actual food during the day. These delicious treats will satisfy every candy crave that takes place during the holiday.
