Dessert ideas for Thanksgiving
I have to make a dessert for Thanksgiving. Any suggestions? Pumpkin and apple pies are already taken. Nothing too too complicated to make.

Pumpkin/Gingerbread Trifle:

Sorry, Chrome won't let me insert hyperlinks. You'll have to c&p.
I may be making these to bring tomorrow since pie is already taken in our house too.

Also, these are not very festive but I promise they are amazing. I have made them three times the past month and am now required to bring these cookies to all upcoming functions. The only difference to the recipe i would suggest is using a cup of chopped pretzels instead if you plan to skip the sea salt on top like I did. And they also sell bags of chocolate/PB morsels combined which is easier and I just used 1.5 cups of the combo instead.
