Maybe you forgot all about Easter this year, or maybe your kids are bored with the standard Easter Bunny fare and you want to give them something extra special. No matter the reason, these fast and easy recipes are something you can whip up last minute, and they'll be sure to wow at your Easter brunch.

1. Chocolate Creme Eggs

You'll Need:

- 6-8 hollow chocolate eggs

For the cream filling:

- 2 oz cream cheese
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- ½ tsp lemon juice
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 4 fl oz heavy whipping cream

For the apricot cream:

- 2 tsp orange juice
- 1 tbsp apricot jam
- 1 tbsp butter

Here's How:

1.1 Fix the hollow chocolate eggs in place so that they won't roll away. For example, you can place them on a roll of tape. Carefully break some of the chocolate off the top to create an opening.

1.2 To prepare the cream filling, mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until frothy. Beat the heavy whipping cream and fold it into the cream mixture. Pipe the cream filling into the chocolate egg and briefly refrigerate to let it set.

1.3 In the meantime, prepare the apricot cream by heating the orange juice, apricot jam, and butter in a pot. Stir the sauce until creamy and let it cool down before adding a dollop in a small scooped-out section of the hardened cream filling in each chocolate egg.

You'll Need:

- 1 sheet of puff pastry
- 1 egg
- 6 carrots
- 6 sprigs of parsley

For the carrot cream cheese filling:

- 8 oz cream cheese
- salt

2.2 Remove the carrots from the puff pastry spirals. Grate the carrots over a bowl and stir in the cream cheese, salt, and pepper.
