Need an easy to make dessert for Easter!

I want to make a dessert for Easter. I'm already trying out a new cookie recipe (Peanut Butter Snickers Cookies) and would like something else- a cake, brownies, etc. Something easy I can make on Friday that would still be good Sunday.

Thanks!

I think I'm going to try something different. Key Lime pie. I'll serve it with homemade whipped cream. Seems very simple and refreshing.
ngredients

1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
3 cups sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup key lime juice
1 tablespoon grated lime zest
Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, combine condensed milk, sour cream, lime juice, and lime rind. Mix well and pour into graham cracker crust.
Bake in preheated oven for 5 to 8 minutes, until tiny pinhole bubbles burst on the surface of pie. DO NOT BROWN! Chill pie thoroughly before serving. Garnish with lime slices and whipped cream if desired.
