25 Thanksgiving Desserts That Are Not Pie – A collection of desserts that pie-adverse friends {and pie fans} will devour: cakes, cobblers, and cookies.
Let’s face it—pies aren’t for everyone. Therefore, I am sharing some of my favorite Thanksgiving desserts for pie-averse people. Everyone will love the recipes in this collection of 25 Thanksgiving Desserts That Are Not Pie.

I love the holiday season, and mainly because of dessert. It is my favorite course. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because of that reason. It is comfort food heaven. You have your savory and sweet. Christmas is sweeter in our home. So I look forward to Thanksgiving because I have more of a balance.
Of course, we have our family favorites, and a few of them are here today, including German Chocolate Cake Cookies and Triple Chocolate Pumpkin Cake. I would love to hear your family’s favorite non-pie dessert at Thanksgiving, so make sure to comment below. I want to see what others have on their table spread.
Cheers to Thanksgiving menu planning, friend. It is something I love, love, love doing.
More Thankgiving
