recipe Dinner Recipe: Glazed Easter Ham
Servings: 18
The Pioneer Woman ~ Step by Step

Ree says her go-to recipe is "totally easy, exceedingly delicious, and results in a purty and glossy Easter ham." It takes just five simple ingredients (including Dr Pepper!) and pairs perfectly with all those sides.
Recipe by: Ree Drummond


    Ingredients:
  • 1 whole fully cooked bone-in ham (15 to 18 pounds)
  • whole cloves
  • 3 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup spicy brown mustard
  • 1 can Dr Pepper or Coke
  • 3 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/8-inch deep. Place cloves in the middle of each diamond. Place the ham in a large roasting pan with a rack, tent it with foil, and bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours for a ham portion—or longer, for a whole ham. (Some hams may require 3 to 3 1/2 hours at a lower temperature; just check the package.)
  • In a small saucepan, heat the brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, and soda until bubbly. Cook until reduced and a bit thicker, about 15 minutes.
  • After 1 1/2 to 2 hours of baking time (depending on the size of the ham), remove the foil and brush the glaze on the ham in 20 minutes intervals (put the ham back in the oven, uncovered, in between) until it's nice and glossy. You want to glaze 3 to 4 times. Remove from the oven and allow to rest 15 to 20 minutes before carving.


recipe Dessert Recipe: Easter Lamb Cake
Servings: 16
Taste of Home ~ Step by Step

Lamb cake might be the most impressive Easter dessert centerpiece!
Recipe by: Debra Waggoner ~ Grand Island, Nebraska
    Ingredients:
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup 2% milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

  • Frosting:
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 3-3/4 to 4 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Assorted decorations: Sweetened shredded coconut, sprinkles and jelly beans

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Place egg whites in a small bowl; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375°. Thoroughly grease and flour inside of a 3D lamb cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in vanilla. In another bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt together twice; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition.
  • Add cream of tartar to egg whites; with clean beaters, beat on high speed just until stiff but not dry. Fold a fourth of the whites into batter, then fold in remaining whites.
  • Gently transfer to bottom half of mold (the bottom half is the face of the lamb). Place top mold (back of lamb) on top, interlocking seams (make sure half with vent hole is on top to permit steam to escape). Place on a baking sheet.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted in vent hole comes out clean, 45-50 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely.
  • For frosting, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Frost cake. Attach sprinkles for eyes and nose; sprinkle body with coconut. If desired, decorate with additional coconut and jelly beans.
