I love almost anything pumpkin including Olive Garden’s Pumpkin Cheesecake! I love pumpkin candles, and pumpkin desserts! YUM! Here are a few of my favorites:
Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons canned pumpkin

- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 cup hot brewed Easy Espresso
- Whipped cream, pumpkin pie spice and ground nutmeg, optional
Directions
- In a small saucepan, combine the milk, pumpkin and sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat until steaming. Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla and pie spice. Transfer to a blender; cover and process for 15 seconds or until foamy.
- Pour into two mugs; add espresso. Garnish with whipped cream and spices if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
- 1-1/2 cups sugar

- In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, cinnamon, baking soda, baking power, salt, nutmeg, allspice and cloves; gradually beat into pumpkin mixture until blended. Stir in raisins and chocolate chips.
- Transfer to a 10-in. fluted tube pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

I will find a way to post my Pumpkin Centerpiece, I am not sure why it won’t allow my photo, but I will figure it out this weekend! 🙂 Have a great Friday!
God Bless,
