If you could only have 1 dessert for Thanksgiving, what would you choose?

What would you choose if you could only pick one?

[DeBora4BobbyL]

I voted pecan pie. I am from Texas where fresh pecans are plentiful. I LOVE pecan pie. Next to that is coconut cream pie!

I would select Pumpkin Cheesecake!

I chose pumpkin pie just because it is a tradition at Thanksgiving -- one of those flavors I just associate with the holiday.

I would select Pumpkin Cheesecake!

I have heard of pumpkin cheese cake and I hear that it is very popular. I think I would rather take the plain cheese cake.

Apple pie, definitely!

But I'm usually too full on Thanksgiving to even want dessert. Generally I just have a cup of coffee or tea.

Pavlova or Cheese cake, the fridge type ones not baked, I don't like them.
Ingredients

4 egg whites
1 ½ cups caster sugar
1 teaspoon corn flour
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Need at least 600ml normal cream beaten till thick (No sugar)

5 passion fruit pulped
3 bananas

Method

Preheat the oven to 150C. Choose the small bowl of the mixer and beat the egg whites on a high speed until fluffy, about a minute. The bowl should be clean with no grease in it, the eggs room temperature and you should be careful not to get any of the yolk in the white. Still beating slowly add the castor sugar until the mixture is thick and glossy with a hard peak, then beat in the corn flour, vinegar, and vanilla. Pile up high to get a marshmallow one or thin for crusty

Line a baking tray with baking paper. Pile on the meringue, hollowing out the centre to form a nest, but if you like a lot of marshmallow centre, pile the meringue up high, rather than flattening it out. Bake the pavlova for 50 minutes until quite firm, then turn the oven off but leave the pavlova in it to cool completely.

Just before required, extract the passion fruit pulp, peel and slice the bananas and toss in a little lemon juice to avoid discoloration. Spread the pavlova with the cream and cover generously with passion fruit and banana.

I had to choose between pecan pie and the coconut. I chose coconut. I like them both but this year I've already got coconut on the menu...:) I don't like pumpkin in much of anything and I'm not a big fan of apples either. Have a great Thanksgiving!!
