As promised, here is the third in a series of Thanksgiving Dinner recipes. Scroll down to see links for Parts 1 and 2. I, myself, could go straight from the dressing right to the desserts. So this little exercise in finding the most unique and fab finales was rather painful. I want to make them all!
I find Lady Fingers so fancy, don't you? I mean, how many Lady Fingers have you had in your kitchen? These have been soaked in espresso and brandy, let's just start there. An impressive dessert.

"It’s an apple spice blondie filled with apples, topped with a no bake caramel cheesecake, topped with cinnamon apples and even more caramel sauce." Oh my!

Caramel Rum Banana Bread Pudding
Anything with caramel and rum seems seasonal to me. You can really make this very Thanksgiving-ish by using Pumpkin Bread.

Julia Child’s Aunt Helen’s Fluffy Pumpkin Pie
Thanks, Sara, for sending along this recipe. If it is good enough for Julia's Aunt Helen, then we all should enjoy it. "Mrs. Child’s addition of molasses, extra spices and especially bourbon breathe new life into the filling." Why am I not surprised about the bourbon?

Chocolate Pumpkin Cake With Spiced Brown Butter Frosting
This cake is quite a beauty! I would never think to put these two together but the spiced frosting marries the pumpkin and chocolate together beautifully.

Caramel Apple Pie
Is there anything more comforting than a wonderful warm slice of apple pie? This pie promises to be "sweet, lightly spiced, and incredibly soft and tender."

This is exactly what pumpkin pie needs, Chocolate ganache and marshmallow meringue. Better make two of them, as everyone will want a slice!

I can't get enough of this little guy, so excuse me for bringing it to you again. If you are serious about getting your pie "anywhere" in style and safely, you need one.

I couldn't resist these pretty parcels of apple gooeyness. The author of the recipe used store bought crust. Even I could do this.
