MMM - pumpkin pie with walnuts on top!

I love homemade pumpkin pie topped with a heaping spoon full of whipped cream!  I have a great recipe for homemade whipped cream too!  I'll put it on my blog!

MmmM, I can taste it already... My mom makes me an individual pie every year, it's a very tart lemon pie! ooOoh, I love it!

Also, I am now hooked on Sweet Tater Pie!! MmmM, I can't wait!!!

We usually have a couple of desserts to choose from. We always make sure to have a sugar-free apple pie for one family member who is diabetic. Since family members contribute various desserts, there's always a surprise too.

YES!!  Sweet Tater Pie is always a hit with our family!  Again, if you top it with fresh whipped cream, that makes it heavenly!!!

I just found a recipe for Cranberry-Apple tarts . . . I may give them a try!! :)

I found a recipe for Pumpkin Cheesecake and it sound delicious. Thought I would give it a try this year. We need something different.  ;o)

I made pumpkin cheesecake cupcakes... They are delicious!!!

Pumpkin pie which I could eat year round and mince pie to get a start on Christmas.

I will be making two sweet potatoe pies just like the ones my mother made. My grandmother made them as well so I suspect the rescipe is a combination of the two rescipes.

I'll make pumpkin pie topped with Cool Whip and I also buy a Chocolate Cream Pie.  I might make pumpkin cookies too as my youngest son isn't into pies but does like these cookies.

Well since I am buying all my food cooked we'll be having a couple of pies from the turkey store. Definately apple. Oh right I see above, I have to buy Cool Whip! Jo

I LOVE mince pie!  I make individual pies in cupcake pans for our guests each Christmas!  It's part of our traditional English Christmas dinner; Roasted Goose w/ chestnut stuffing, yorkshire pudding w/ gravy, and mushy peas.  Ymmm!

I'm going to have to try making this Pumpkin Cheesecake!!  Maybe I'll just skip the entire dinner this year and have desserts for Thanksgiving!

Grandma, not a bad idea at all!! :)

I seen a recipe the other day for pumpkin cheesecake and wanted to make it but I wanted a dessert that night so I opted for a homemade chocolate cake with cream cheese, pumpkin and spices.

I will be going to my mom's for Thanksgiving. We will probably have pecan pie and some sort of cake. Maybe I'll make the pumpkin cheesecake =) yum!

Cheesecake and ice cream.  I know it's not traditional, but it's what the kids requested.

Okay, the pumpkin cheesecake cupcakes were really, really good. But, last night i made a Caramel Apple Cheesecake and brough it into work this morning... It's already gone and it's only 10am. It disappeared in 2 hours and everyone is wanting another one.. hahaha. I got this receipe from Ms. Paula Dean!

WOW you are not going to believe this but I baked a caramel apple cheese cake and took it into work for a baby shower a few years ago and it was gone in a matter of minutes, honest to goodness truth!!  I wonder if Ms. Dean's recipe is the same one I have??  I'll have to check it out!!  :) 

I am making the Hungry Girl Pumpkin Pie for those of us who wish to enjoy the desert with less guilt, it's only 2 points per piece.  In addition to this, there will original Pumpkin pie, country Apple Pie, and Chocolate Delight (for the chocolate lovers!).

I was going to make a Pumpkin pie cheese cake. I need to find a good recipe first.

Probably the pecan pie.
