Shabbat and Yom Tov are great and all, but there’s something liberating about get-togethers like Thanksgiving when it comes to the food, specifically desserts. You’re not restricted to any baking or reheating limitations, so you can have fun frying, melting and decorating confections you don’t ordinarily have a chance to make.

So this year, try expanding your repertoire. Break out the deep fryer, candy apple maker or fondue pot and have fun making desserts that your family will go crazy for.

If you’re family waits all year for the traditional desserts like Pecan Pie or Pumpkin Muffins, don’t worry! We’ve included all the classics here too.

And whether your tradition is to celebrate Thanksgiving or not, these desserts will end any Autumnal meal on a high note.
