I have but a few things that are important to me on Thanksgiving Day. Considering the amount of food that could potentially be served at a holiday feast, there are only three items that I always expect/desire:
- turkey
- mashed potatoes (don’t care about the type but I do need gravy)
- pumpkin pie
That’s not too much to ask, right? One thing that’s also important to me though – and it’s a little nit picky. I like my pumpkin pie to be really cold when it’s served.
And honestly, that’s how I feel about these mini pumpkin bites. They need to be really cold before serving! Yes . . . I said mini pumpkin pies, by the way. Which brings me to this pumpkin dessert recipe that I’m so excited to share.
While I like both sweet and savory pumpkin spice stuff, I tend more towards the sweets. These delicious mini pumpkin pie bites are just the sort of treat that will satisfy your Thanksgiving dessert cravings.
