These crisp meringue nests with candy chocolate eggs and orange curd are *almost* too cute to eat.
Get the RecipeEaster is just around the corner, which always makes me want to say goodbye to heavy wintry desserts and welcome all the fresh and vibrant flavors of spring to the table. For this year's Easter table, I decided to make these individual meringue nests, filled with a swirled orange curd cream, fresh red currants, and chocolate Easter eggs.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can simply spoon dollops of meringue onto a lined baking sheet and use a spoon to make a little well in the middle to hold the filling later on. But a piping bag fitted with a star tip makes these nests look extra adorable. Once the meringue nests are in the oven, you can make the orange curd. Orange curd, like lemon curd, is basically an egg yolk-based custard made with citrus juice instead of milk or cream. If you've made custard before, you will definitely recognize the steps.
