Here at The Kitchn, we make (and eat!) dessert year-round — from no-bake mousses to easy dump cakes to more intricate layer cakes. There’s never a time when we’re not baking, but there’s something especially exciting about spring baking. As soon as it warms up the tiniest bit, we’re racing to add seasonal ingredients like lemon, blueberries, and strawberries into our favorite cake, bar, and cookie recipes. To help get you into the baking spirit, our editors picked 10 of the easiest desserts they swear by, and collected them into a handy and totally free downloadable PDF.
We promise you each delicious recipe will shine at any spring gathering. There’s Patty’s recipe for blueberry dump cake (you won’t believe it has only four ingredients), Rachel’s recipe for frozen berry fool (it’s ready in just 15 minutes), and my recipe for strawberry spoon cake (which can make not-the-greatest fruit taste amazing). There’s also a can’t-miss cake that calls for boxed cake mix and instant chocolate pudding (it’s so good that it tastes totally homemade), and the best lemon bars you’ve ever had.
