14 Desserts That Start With the Letter E

1. Eskimo Pie

This popular ice-cream bar is a creation of Christian K. Nelson, a candy store owner who got the inspiration after a boy couldn’t decide if he wants a chocolate bar or ice cream. So, he merged the two treats into one – the Eskimo Pie.

It’s a vanilla-flavored ice-cream covered in chocolate and wrapped in foil. This ice cream is the first of its kind sold in the US. By 1922, Nelson was selling 1 million Eskimo Pies a day.

2. Eclairs

This delicious oblong pastry is considered a fancy donut. It’s made with choux dough, baked until hollow inside, and filled with sweet vanilla cream. The crisp and puffy baked pastry is dipped in a warm chocolate glaze.

The crispy eclairs are perfectly creamy on the inside and are always served chilled.

3. Eccles Cake

The traditional English pastry called Eccles Cake is made with flaky pastry with butter. This small, round cake packed with currants is one of Britain’s most beloved pastries. 

Some variations of the recipe include spices and candied citrus peel. The delicious, small cake is usually sprinkled with sugar and enjoyed with a cup of hot tea.

4. Eggnog

Eggnog, egg milk punch, or milk punch is a popular Christmas beverage made with cream, milk, eggs, sugar, and some alcohol such as whiskey, rum, or brandy.

There is, however, a non-alcoholic version of Eggnog that you can spike it later. You can add some vanilla, nutmeg, or cinnamon to this rich, sweet beverage for an even better taste. It used to include a lot more alcohol in the past than nowadays.

5. Eggnog Trifle

This is the ultimate party dessert that combines the sweet beverage Eggnog and the most favorite British pudding Trifle.

Eggnog Trifle is made by using Eggnog as one of the trifle’s layers. It’s easy to make and it has a pretty presentation, so it’s perfect for hang-outs and parties. This dessert is served cold from the fridge.

6. Egg Custard

This classic dessert is sweet and comforting and packed with mild proteins. It has a mild and sophisticated flavor and a creamy texture like pudding. It’s made with eggs, butter, milk, vanilla, sugar, and nutmeg.

What makes it different from puddings is that Egg Custard is baked. It’s an ideal snack for children, but also a great option for dinner parties.

7. Elephant Ears

This fried dough that reminds of an elephant’s ear is topped with cinnamon-sugar or jam. You can usually see it at county fairs, food trucks, carnivals, and theme parks.

Elephant Ears are soft, crispy, unevenly shaped, and much more delicious than they appear to be.

8. Egg Roll Cookies

The batter is made of eggs, flour, vanilla, sugar, butter, and things like chocolate chip cookies.
