Home Sweet Home: 4 Thanksgiving Desserts

There are three things every collegiate woman plans to do within the next week; 1) Sleep, 2) Diflect any questions about your relationship status from your aunts and 3) eat. Luckily, Her Campus Texas can help you with that last one. Here are 4 non-traditional Thanksgiving desserts to accompany your pumpkin pie and to comfort you when your pushy, but well-meaning, grandma says “No boyfriend at all? But you’re so pretty!” 

1. Caramel Apple Cheesecake Crumble Bars 

Cook time: 60 minutes 

Supplies Needed: Large, small and medium bowls. 8-inch square pan. A very big sweet tooth. 

2. Oreo Acrorns

Cook Time: 1 Hour 

Supplies Needed: Something to melt the chocalate with and something to grind the oreos. A squirrel-like desire to scarf these down. 

3. Snickers Tart

Have a snickers tart. You’re not yourself when you’re hungry. 

4. Apple Ring Cake

It’s actually what’s not needed for this cake that makes it interesting. It’s gluten free, grain free, vegan and sugar-free.
