Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Less than one week to go! I’ve been tasked with the dessert this year, so I thought it would be a good idea to talk about my plan of attack.

The pumpkin pie has been a traditional American dish practically ever since the invention of the pumpkin! This pastry covered delight has become a meal baked not only at Halloween, a time of year when pumpkins take on the form of scary orange lanterns, but also all throughout the season. The pumpkin pie can be dated all the way back to the first English settlers that…haha did you think I would go on with all of this history???

I think a pumpkin pie dessert will be too traditional for my blood, so I think I will go with something very unconventional and make a chocolate cake infused with graham crackers and marshmallow fondant. I looked at many different recipes, but this is the best fondant recipe that I found. Let’s hope it goes well.
