I feel like Easter treats for adults is one of the funnest (and tastiest) things you can enjoy.

Because they’re a bit more sophisticated than the candy kids gets in Easter eggs, but still just as fun.

Also, you can have a bit of a mix of “classy” looking desserts with the more fun and colorful recipes for your get-together.

And with whatever you’re in the mood for, I think I’ve got you covered.

PS – Check out everything on this list. There are some good ones on here!

1. Lemon Meringue Tartlets

I’m kind of in love with lemon meringue, and while these tartlets can be a bit of work, I think they’re worth it.

They’re the kind of dessert you whip out for special occasions like Easter. You know, the kind that impresses everyone.

Also, I think these would pair nicely with a hot cup of creamy coffee, but that’s just me!

I love the idea of these coconut macaroon nests!

You’re getting some nice crunchy creamy chocolatey goodness. Honestly, I’d probably eat 10 of these without flinching.

And while the prep time is 25 minutes, I’d say it’s worth the effort.

I mean, look at how cute they are!
