Celebrating Passover this spring? Finish off your meal with one (or a few!) of these tempting desserts. Our friends at Cooking Light created these Seder-friendly sweets to navigate the dietary restrictions of Passover. We think these treats would be a welcome finale to any meal!
Chocolate-Orange Cake
Whipped egg whites add air to the cake, which puffs high as it bakes, then falls as it cools. Pureed dates add a pleasing texture and exotic sweetness. The candied orange rind that garnishes this dessert would also work with other recipes–and it’s a delicious sweet shade on its own.

Chocolate Pavlovas with Honeyed Strawberries
Some sources claim that this dessert was originated by an Australian chef in the 1920s for the ballerina Anna Pavlova. The shells were updated with a little cocoa in the meringue, which goes well with strawberries. Pavlovas do not respond well to high humidity; if they soften, place in a low-heat oven for 5 minutes to crisp.

Caramelized Pecan-Praline Roulade
Praline Powder is made by mixing pecans with caramelized sugar, then grinding the mixture. This recipe makes more than you need for the roulade, but keep it on hand to sprinkle over sliced apples or cinnamon toast for a quick, easy treat. The cake can be made and rolled a day in advance; the filling is best the day it is made.
