Dessert for Easter lunch?

[Anonymous]

DH has kindly volunteered to bring two desserts for his extended family's Easter lunch this week. Of course he's not going to be the one doing the cooking! I've never been to an Eater lunch in the USA, so I've got no idea what people typically eat for dessert. His family are going to be having a spiral cut ham for the main course. What kind of thing should I bring? He mentioned a crumble. Would this be suitable? Any other suggestions would be gladly received.

I like Key Lime Pie for Easter dessert:

Key Lime Bars?

Cheesecake? Lemon Chess Pie? Banana Pudding? Coconut cake? Carrot cake?

For some reason, Easter desserts seem to be creamy and/or citrusy, but not usually chocolate (in my family, at least). Maybe it's because it's a meal that's earlier in the day, so dessert shouldn't be as heavy as it is for other holidays.

Also, I always love a fruit crumble!

Being from the south, we always have Banana Pudding, Strawberry Shortcake and Chess Squares. My mother usually would make a coconut pie as well.

Maybe because (in my family) we go overboard with the chocolate eggs!

Lemon mousse, my favorite.

OP here. Thank you everyone. I think I'll go for a blueberry and apple crumble and a lemon cheesecake. Now I've only got to find the time to make them!
