Pumpkin Scones with Maple Icing

Chipotle Pumpkin Soup
This Chipotle Pumpkin Soup is a wonderful starter for a holiday dinner, or any Fall and Winter dinner really. Super easy to make using chicken broth, pumpkin purée, spices and a few texture toppings, the slightly sweet heat is amazing.
Soft Pumpkin Snickerdoodles
OK, so I was asked to make up a little sweet treat dessert for a party and decided on these Soft Pumpkin Snickerdoodles. Quick, easy to make and influenced by the pumpkin puree I had on hand, these are a delicious take on the snickerdoodle.
Slab Pumpkin Pie Bars

Pumpkin Cheesecake Parfaits
These creamy, textured Pumpkin Cheesecake Parfaits are the perfect Fall dessert. Easy to put together (15 minutes!), these sweet and cream cheese layered parfaits have vanilla granola and whipped cream to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Impress your guests at your next gathering with individual serving mini pumpkin pies! No more worrying about how big to cut your slices. My recipe also features a few unexpected ingredients like sweetened condensed milk and candied ginger.
