With Thanksgiving slowly but surely creeping its way into our lives, I thought it was about time to wrangle up some pumpkin inspired desserts for serving to family and friends. I love a GOOD pumpkin pie, over spiced and dry pumpkin pie not so much. But who says it has to be a full on pie to enjoy. Here are some tasty pumpkin treats for you to try out!
Pumpkin Pie Bites…YUM! Learn to make them here.
Pumpkin Whoopie Pies from Williams-Sonoma.
Bourbon Pumpkin Pie Milkshakes (for grownups please) 
Get the recipe here.
Pumpkin Praline Trifle. Boy oh boy I can’t wait to make these! You can find mini tasting serving pieces at Pier 1, but learn to make them here.
Hope you are inspired to serve up something new and different this Thanksgiving!
