You will find lots of Easter recipes in the Easter Treats & Sweets cookbook by Carol Vale. Unfortunately the recipes are not written for US cooks as the recipes use European measurements. Below is a sample ingredients list from the White Chocolate Easter Egg Cupcakes:White Chocolate Easter Egg Cupcakes3 ozs (85 grams) white chocolate, chopped1 egg1/2 cup self raising flour1/2 cup plain flour1/2 cup milk1 cup castor sugar4.5 ounces (125 grams) butter, choppedIcing:2 cups icing sugar2 ozs (50 grams) butter, softened2 tablespoons milkMini Easter eggs to decorateAlso, it would have helped to have a dictionary to translate some of the European terms for US cooks.There is a wide variety of recipes such as:Easter BiscuitsWhite Choc Jelly Bean Easter CrackleCaramello Egg BrowniesYou will find an active table of contents making navigation easy.Recommend with caveats given.
