Desserts Perfect For Spring Gatherings ~ Celebrate the spring season with these sweet treats using spring fruits and flavors! Posted on April 3, 2021 by dkteel Potted Chocolate-Mint Puddings ~Mini mint puddings sprout to life, thanks to a mint “seedling” and some ground-cookie “dirt.” Strawberry Shortcake Jellies ~ All the familiar flavors of a traditional strawberry shortcake come together in this fanciful form. Chill a thin layer of berry gelatin in the bottom of teacups, pour on a layer of creamy gelatin—panna cotta, a classic Italian dessert—and add pound cake. As the layers chill, they hold together; invert, and voila! Lemon Tartlets with Meringue Caps ~ Thin tuile cookies are baked, then folded into tartlet shells while still warm. Once cooled, each ruffled cup is filled with vibrant, sweet lemon curd and topped with a playful meringue curlicue. Rose-and-Ginger Cupcakes ~ With their sugar-brushed flower petals and fragrant, rose-flavored glaze, these delicate cupcakes are pretty in pink. On the inside, jewels of candied ginger are hidden in a zesty ginger cake that’s just sweet enough to make you, well, blush. Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake ~ This cake has a crumb “topping” that actually ends up on the bottom. Each bite has a surprisingly crunchy texture. Glazed Lemon Pound Cake ~ Get the most lemon flavor into this pound cake by grating the lemon zest first, then squeezing out the juice. Lemon zest, juice, and glaze give you triple the lemon for a crowd-pleasing pound cake. **All recipes found on Martha Stewart Living, AdvertisementShare this:TwitterFacebookLike this:Like Loading...
