These fun-loving desserts might not be strictly authentic, but they’ll get lots of attention at the Cinco de Mayo party. And isn’t that what you’re aiming for? Plus, they’re super easy to make. Let’s take a look.
1. Dessert Nachos
It takes a mere 10 minutes to throw the peanut butter, chocolate chips, marshmallows, coconut, and tortilla chips together before running the pan under the broiler until it’s all toasty and bubbly. Dig in!
2. Margarita Balls I
Tequila shots in cookie form? You’ll be the talk of the party when you show up with these. But in a good way.
3. Frozen Margarita Pie
Everything you love about margaritas, but 10 times more gorgeous. And with only three tablespoons of booze flavoring the filling, no one will have to Uber home after one slice too many.
4. Sopapilla Cheesecake Pie
This top-rated baked dessert combines the cinnamon and honey flavor of traditional sopapillas with tangy, creamy cheesecake encased in crescent dough.
5. Bananas Foster Chimichangas
Sweet, crunchy tortillas filled with warm, rum-laced bananas. (You know you want some now.) As an alternative to frying the chimichangas, you can serve the bananas over ice cream with baked tortilla wedges smeared with butter and cinnamon sugar.
6. Lime and Tequila Infused Strawberries
Serve these boozy berries with shortcake and whipped cream for a big-kids-only dessert. Prep is super-quick and easy, but be sure to let the berries steep for an hour to let all the juices mingle. What do you mean you can’t wait that long?
7. Cinco de Chili Chocolate Cupcakes with Chili Cream Cheese Frosting
These unforgettable cupcakes will make up for that time you broke the thing when you swung at the piñata. Yeah, you remember that. Everyone remembers that.
8. Margarita Cake with Key Lime Cream Cheese Frosting
What gives these cupcakes their name is the margarita mix in the batter. You can bake it as a layer cake, a Bundt cake, or as cupcakes; they’re all good. Add rum or tequila to the frosting if you want to liquor things up.
9. Tres Leches Pina Colada Cake
Watch the video to see how to make this incredibly moist and coconutty cake. There’s no booze in the recipe, but you could always add a tablespoon to flavor the whipped cream topping, if that’s how you like it.

10. Churros
They’re filling up your Instagram and Pinterest feeds, so why not make this is the year you learn how to make churros? Then you can turn them into crazy things like homemade churro cones to stuff with ice cream. Or build a churro log cabin.
