Thanksgiving Desserts

I can’t believe how quickly Thanksgiving is approaching and, like every year at this time, I’ve got a mind for desserts this week. While I love a classic pumpkin or apple pie as much as the next girl, I also love switching it up and making something unexpected that still plays on seasonal flavors. I’m the resident Thanksgiving dessert girl in my family so cataloging delicious dessert recipes is kind of my thing. Here are just a few that have caught my eye lately. Um, hello. Pumpkin s’mores cupcakes, anyone?
