Lemon Ricotta Easter Nest Cakes with Vanilla Glaze

These small lemon ricotta cakes are soft, bright, and lightly sweet, which makes them especially nice for a spring table. The ricotta keeps the crumb tender while fresh lemon brings a clean, sunny flavor that feels right for Easter. I like finishing them with a simple vanilla glaze and a small “nest” of toasted coconut with a few pastel candies. They look festive and hold beautifully for brunch or an afternoon gathering.

It’s fresh, juicy fruit tossed in lime juice and a touch of honey, served with warm, crispy cinnamon-sugar tortilla chips. Basically, a fruit salad met a churro chip and they became besties.
