The moment when all the guests are full, the dishes half empty and everybody takes a moment in silence to appreciate all the good in life; that moment is when you present the desserts and everybody suddenly has a little more space in their bellies. What a lovely dinner, isn’t it?
Well, many people are trying new desserts to avoid this ritual getting old. We have nothing against pumpkin pie but we understand that you want to try something new, although, the new dessert has to be really good to replace the pumpkin classic. Keep reading to discover easy thanksgiving desserts for a crowd.
No-Bake Cranberry Cheesecake
A no-bake cake means one spot will be available in the stove and less work to worry about. Also, making this cheesecake takes just 25 minutes (less time that it will take to eat it, period). The cheese cream will taste heavenly if you keep it uncovered in the refrigerator at least 3 hours or overnight. Doing it right, this cheesecake deserves to be in the centerpiece of your Thanksgiving dinner.
Pumpkin Spice Pretzel Bites
You’ll want to try this recipe if you usually have some biscuits leftovers and room in the belly. This dessert can’t be easier to prepare. There’re only four ingredients (not counting the biscuits): butter, baking soda, granulated sugar and… wait for it… pumpkin spice! Cut the biscuits into five or six pieces, roll them into balls, and brush baking soda onto each piece. Then bake until golden and finish it sprinkling sugar and pumpkin spice all over.
Honey Pear Tart
If you want a creative thanksgiving dessert try this one, but beware, this honey pear tart can overshadow your other side dishes in the table. Unless you hate pears, you’ll want to try this deliciously gorgeous fruity dessert. And although it looks tricky to make, it’s actually quick and easy thanks to the store-bought puff pastry. Some 90% of the tart is already-made pastry with finely cut pears. To complete this work of art just add almonds, honey, and goat cheese on top.
Pumpkin roll
Let’s get this straight: nobody gets tired of pumpkin pie; but let’s admit it, sometimes we want to try something new. If that’s your case, this mouthwatering pumpkin roll filled with cream cheese is the best choice for you. Don’t get overwhelmed by all the ingredients— any beginner who has used his oven once or twice can do it without a problem. In fact, we share with you this step-by-step video for you don’t miss any detail.
Cinnamon Apple Crisp
Last but not least: a classic. Nobody can resist the delicious crispy topping and the soft and sweet apple filling. When your guests taste the cinnamon-spiced apples along with the buttery crispy baked oats they’re going to think “I could eat this dessert every day”. Preparing it is not difficult if you follow the recipe. Just remember one rule: if you want a soft and tender filling slice your apple nice and thin.
Of course, you could always skip dessert and let the other dishes do all the work, right? Just kidding! We know that’s not an option. Dessert is essential.
