What's the one dessert that you just couldn't leave off your Thanksgiving table?

[Ann]

Pumpkin Pie with lots of whipped cream...of course!!!

My family has to have my late mother's apple pie. Not that she made it, cause that would be really old pie. But her recipe. I'm allergic to apples though, so I don't eat it. For me, I have to have the pumpkin pie like you Ann!

Nop Dessert For Me!!!! Yes I am a Pastry Chef by trade and not a big dessert person anymore!!!!

Ditto on the pumpkin pie. Luckily I learned to make my Mom's but never learned to make her mother's butterscotch pie. That was good too.

Cat--how can one be allergic to APPLES?? That's odd, huh?

[Ann]

Wow...butterscotch pie.....that sounds really good right now!!!!

Mom is the pie baker in our family. We have three traditional family pies...mince meat (my dad's and Larry's favorite - we aren't having that this year ), pumpkin and rum. I have never heard of anybody else that does rum pie. It's made with melted marshmallows, whipped cream and a touch of rum. Unique and delicious.

Got to have the pumpkin pie. Even if I wanted to change the kids wouldn't let me.

Pumpkin pie at our house, too.

I have no idea what it is with apples, but it makes my mouth tingle. When I was 4, a candy I ate made my mouth tingle, followed by my throat closing and I turned a lovely shade of blue on my way to the ER. So that feeling is usually a signal to stop eating something. And it is a shame as I used to be able to eat them and I loved them.
