Glazed Spiral-Sliced Ham
When the test cooks start to nibble at it almost immediately, you know that a recipe is going to be celebration-worthy. For a moist ham with a glaze that complements but doesnât overwhelm the meat, choose our recommended type of ham at the market and then slowly heat it to this relatively low (but safeâspiral sliced hams are previously cooked) internal temperature.

Step-By-Step Photos
The last step to making the perfect ham is carving it like a pro. Despite its name, spiral sliced hams are not fully sliced. [Step 1: With the ham on its side, cut around the bone with a paring knife to free the attached slices.]( [Step 2: Switch to a carving knife and slice horizontally above the bone to remove the entire section.]( [Step 3: Turn the ham to cut side down and slice down along the bone to remove the remaining meat.]( [Step 4: Carefully cut between the slices to separate them.]( [Icon]

“In the 18 years I have been cooking ham for the family Easter dinner, I have never landed on a recipe good enough to repeat a second year. Not only will I use this recipe again next Easter, I may have to repeat once or more in the meantime.”

Cheesy Mashed Potato Casserole
Typically mashed potatoes are made and served right away, which can take up precious time on a holiday. What if you could assemble a creamy, buttery, cheesy mashed potato casserole a few days ahead? And what if those cheesy potatoes were nestled under a crispy, crunchy (loaded with even more cheese) panko crust? Right this way to your new signature holiday (and potluck and any-night) mashed potatoes. [Icon]

Lemon Cookie Bars
Like a cross between sugar cookies and lemon bars, with a nod to brownies, these bar cookies are chewy, sweet, and vibrant. We use both butter and oil for optimal chew and a small amount of cream cheese for richness. Lemon juice and zest provide the perfectly potent pucker-up quotient to the cookie layer and the glaze. A few years ago, our Best Lemon Bars took the crown as the all-time favorite test kitchen recipe. These bars give those a run for their money. [Icon]

“These are AMAZING!!!!! The texture is fabulous. It is as if the chewiest blondie snuggled up with a lemon bar, so incredibly good. The only thing I did different was instead of yellow sprinkles I had a little bit of lemon zest left over that I dried and sprinkled a little bit on top.”

Equipment Review
The recipe calls for lemon zest, which is packed with bright, fruity flavor compounds. Just below the yellow zest, however, is white pith. Pith is flavorless on its own, but grating it with the zest triggers a reaction that causes bitterness. Itâs best to use a light hand when zesting and harvest only the bright-yellow zest. Our favorite rasp-style grater makes quick work of this task.
