PBJ Chocolate Truffles MF Hers

Peanut Butter & Jelly Truffles

Sponsored ContentYou know how all the candy companies release their really expensive chocolate and peanut butter candy eggs this time of year? Instead of being strong and fighting your chocolate and PB cravings, it’s more than okay to whip up a batch of these delicious Peanut Butter & Jelly Chocolate Truffles and go to town. The name alone is enough to elicit a little mouthwatering. Just be sure to save some for the Easter basket.FIND THE PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY TRUFFLES RECIPE HERE.

Cookie Dough Turtles MF Hers

Cookie Dough Turtles

Easter isn’t just all about bunnies and eggs, you know? This year, you should switch things up with these delectable Cookie Dough Turtles. What they lack in a shell they more than make up for with taste and good looks. The turtles are small enough to toss in an Easter basket or serve on a platter, but with flavor this big, you might need to get out those extra stretchy yoga pants… just in case. FIND THE COOKIE DOUGH TURTLES RECIPE HERE. 

3 of 8

No Bake Cookie Dough MF Hers

No Bake Cookie Dough

Remember how mom would tell you, “You’re going to get sick if you eat the cookie dough, it’s got raw eggs in it!”? Well, this Easter it’s time to send mom a picture of you digging in (literally) to a heaping jar of Quest No Bake Cookie Dough. A fun way to Easter-ize this tasty dessert is to serve it in tiny jars with mini wooden spoons. This method serves two purposes: A) It’s okay to eat the whole jar B) It’s okay to eat several jars. FIND THE NO BAKE COOKIE DOUGH RECIPE HERE.

4 of 8

Almond Thumbprint Cookie MF Hers

Almond Thumbprint Cookies

While it’s criminal to break your clean diet, this is a thumbprint that won’t get you in trouble with the law. Make the Easter bunny jealous with these tiny, tasty treats. These are the perfect dessert to make in a hurry – with only about 25 minutes of prep time you won’t even break a sweat. The best part is you can make them and share them with friends and family, and give them all the sweetness they crave and the benefit of clean eating. FIND THE ALMOND THUMBPRINT COOKIES RECIPE HERE.

Cherry Almond Biscotti MF Hers

Cherry Almond Biscotti

This ain’t your grandad’s biscotti – this is the cleanest, crunchiest, crumbliest concoction complete with a dark chocolatey crust and cherry almond chunks. If you thought that was a mouthful, wait until you dip one of these in your Easter morning coffee and take a bite. It’s heavenly. And with incredible macros, it’s the perfect dessert for the kids to nibble on before embarking on their Easter egg hunt. Who says you can’t have dessert for breakfast? You’ll be a goddess in their eyes.FIND THE CHERRY ALMOND BISCOTTI RECIPE HERE.

Red Velvet Cake Pops MF Hers

Red Velvet Cake Pops

There’s not really much to say about these because if you’re reading this and not clicking the link below for the recipe, you’re doing it wrong. Kids and adults alike will love having these in their baskets this year. The kids will forgive you for not dosing them with all the sugar and the adults will thank you for letting them eat guilt-free red velvet. You will look like a hero and rightfully so. For added fun, politely request that they enjoy them and refuse to have any… when really you’re secretly hiding your own private batch just for yourself.FIND THE RED VELVET CAKE POPS RECIPE HERE.

7 of 8

Protein Donuts MF Hers

Protein Donuts

While donuts aren’t the first thing to come to mind when you think of Easter, these mini sweet treats are too tasty to leave off the list. And you can decorate them in so many fun ways that you can infuse the colors and tastes of the holiday into every batch. These bite-sized bits double as the perfect, round Easter egg holder, doubling the deliciousness on any egg hunt.FIND THE PROTEIN DONUTS RECIPE HERE.

Carrot Cake Cups MF Hers

Carrot Cake Cups

Rabbits, bunnies, carrots, cake. It all makes total sense to serve up these tasty Carrot Cake Cups this Easter. Once you enjoy a spoonful of these mini cups of heaven, you’ll be a believer. They pack 14 grams of protein into each serving but taste just as sweet as the real deal. So pop a cap on the cups and hide them around the house – just don’t forget to keep a few in your secret stash for yourself.FIND THE CARROT CAKE CUPS RECIPE HERE.
