Ask anyone who’s ever hosted or been to a Seder, and they’ll tell you the same thing: Passover desserts aren’t lacking for anything. Sure, there are a few ingredient restrictions, but on the whole, the options are excellent. And by the way, some of those restrictions have yielded deliciously creative substitutions over the years. Ahead, I’ve curated a list of some of the most delicious-looking, kosher for Passover desserts out there—from Martha Stewart’s matzo pie to Molly Yeh’s almond flour chocolate chip cookie cake (plus a few of my own Passover desserts from the blog archives!). These Passover desserts are short on fancy ingredients and long on deliciousness, and some double as table décor (matzo toffee place cards for the win!). Whether you’re looking for chocolatey Passover desserts, fruit-filled Passover desserts, traditional Passover desserts, not-so-traditional Passover desserts, or Passover desserts involving matzo, I’ve got you covered. Enjoy and chag sameach!
P.S. If you’re looking for more Passover inspiration, I’ve got tons! Passover quotes, Passover gifts, and so many other ideas await you right over here. And as always, there’s even more on Insta—follow along and say hi!
