I'm excited to be cooking Thanksgiving dinner for my family. Even though we are just a family of 3, I still like to pull out some special treats for them! Here is a sneak peek of the desserts we will partake in after dinner. I baked them today, to get that extra mess out of the way and when they came out of the oven, we just had to nibble....they were SO yummy! I will definitely post more tomorrow, as I am trying out a new recipe for a Sweet Potato Casserole with Bourbon & Pineapple glaze! Happy Turkey day!
