Save room for something sweet! We’ve got all the classics (plus, treats with a twist), including pumpkin cheesecake, apple pie, themed cookies, cupcakes and more.


Our Best Thanksgiving Dessert Recipes
Regardless of how much we eat at Thanksgiving dinner, we’ve always got room for dessert. And, when we say dessert we’re talking about so much more than just pumpkin pie, although we’ll certainly have a slice of that too! Our sweet spread includes seasonal desserts packed with apples from the orchard, fun and festive cookies, Thanksgiving cheesecakes, treats inspired by our favorite pies — and so much more.

No how you decide to finish your Thanksgiving feast, a sweet pumpkin treat is a must — and these moist pumpkin cupcakes (topped with a one-bowl chocolate buttercream) are one of our favorite picks. They’re decorated with easy-to-find confections, turning them into a tasty holiday bite that everyone will want to gobble up. Best of all, you can make the cupcakes a day or two ahead so that all you have to do on Turkey Day is decorate them.
