These Mini Pumpkin Bundt Cakes were so much fun for us to make. You will love this Thanksgiving dessert idea because it is easy to make. Our secret is to use a boxed spice cake mix. Whipping up a delightful treat has never been easier! 🎃🍂

Easy Pumpkin Fluff Dip

This is festive and says Happy Thanksgiving Dessert to me! This Pumpkin Fluff Dip is creamy, fluffy, and perfect for dipping apples or cookies. After we made this recipe, we used the leftovers to make frozen cookie sandwiches. So make extras and enjoy!

Pumpkin Cookies With Cake Mix

We love these 3 ingredient Thanksgiving cookies! I got this recipe idea from my sister-in-law and then adapted it from there. Drench them with a sweet glaze for an extra layer of yumminess, perfect for Thanksgiving. 🍁🎃🍂

Best Candy Corn Flower Cupcakes

This is one of the cutest recipes that we have ever made. You could buy pre-made cupcakes and pull this off, but we like to make cupcakes at home. No matter where you get the cupcakes, these are the perfect Thanksgiving dessert. My tip is to make these and then hand them out as people walk in the door.

If you are, you are gonna love this simple turkey brownies recipe. We recommend that you start with pre-made brownies to make it even easier.

Spiced Pumpkin Cupcakes

I have the perfect pumpkin treat for you—our recipe for Spiced Pumpkin Cupcakes. They are perfect for holiday gatherings or a cozy night of Netflix!

Soft Pumpkin Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting

This crisp cool fall air calls for something cozy to eat and a fire and a blanket. These cookies baking will fill your home with the scent of pumpkin spice better than any candle.

Mini Pumpkin Cakes with Caramel Buttercream

This is that time of year when a recipe such as these mini pumpkin cakes, a perfect embodiment of the season, starts to sound extra delicious. If you love fall flavors, pumpkin spice, AND cake, you will be in for a treat with this recipe.

3-Ingredient Pumpkin Brownies

So this fall, we merged two unique flavors: pumpkin and rich chocolate brownies. This is a three-ingredient recipe, which means less stress and more yum.

Pumpkin Spice Donuts with Vanilla Buttermilk Glaze

Just imagine yourself creating a batch of warm, homemade pumpkin spice donuts fresh from the fryer. Then, imagine dipping each one in a luscious vanilla buttermilk glaze.

Pumpkin Spice Rice Krispie Treats

These Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats merge the ooey gooey sweetness of a class Rice Krispie Treats with the rich delicious fall spices. So imagine cinnamon, nutmeg and that little hit of cloves all wrapped in a marshmallowy chewy treat.

Pumpkin Hand Pies

The tops, brushed with egg wash and a dusting of spiced sugar, bake into a delicate shell that shatters under a fork. Serve these still slightly warm, with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream to catch the sweet spice.

Crockpot Pumpkin Cobbler

A crumbly topping of yellow cake mix and butter settles over the surface, turning golden and crisp at the edges while staying tender where it meets the pumpkin beneath. I love this easy substitute for pumpkin pie: I still get the whipped cream (my favorite part) and pumpkin spice flavor.

Pumpkin Crazy Cake

This super simple, budget-friendly dessert is perfect for fall or a family get-together. You can top it with any frosting you love, from classic cream cheese to the convenience of canned frosting.

3-Ingredient Pumpkin Bread

You don’t even need a mixer— just a wooden spoon and a little elbow grease. You can swap the chopped pecans for walnuts, sliced almonds or pumpkin seeds, too.

Apple Dapple Cake

That’s exactly what inspired this Apple Dapple Cake. It’s dense, rich, and studded with tart apples.

Apple Crisp with Apple Pie Filling

Fresh apples can be really high maintenance. Washing, drying, peeling, dicing, keeping the seeds and core out of your cut fruit.

Apple Cobbler with Apple Pie Filling

What’s great about this apple cobbler is that the topping isn’t just a pale, flavorless biscuit-style breading, often the standard when it comes to a southern-style cobbler. Plus you also get your Vitamin B in there: a whole stick of real butter too.

Apple Turnovers

Puff pastry is pretty much the easy way to do dessert, because you can combine it with almost any fruit filling and you get a flaky, rich treat that just so indulgent—but can be picked up at the store year round. Add a simple glaze after they cool and you have a brunch classic ready to go.

Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies

There’s something about these soft and chewy cookies in a combo of sweet white chocolate and tangy dried cranberries that just works. These cookies are soft in the center, slightly crisp on the edges, and easy to make when you’re craving something a little extra without a ton of effort.
