Thanksgiving is approaching soon and I’m already meal planning and stocking up on ingredients for our Thanksgiving meal!

We will be serving the typical turkey along with our favorite Southern Cornbread Dressing, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, rolls, and sweet tea.

I’m getting hungry writing this!

I have my menu planned out for our main meal but I’m also preparing for our dessert menu.

Cherry Pineapple Dump Cake

We serve a traditional pumpkin pie every year topped with whipped cream, but this year, I wanted to add something else to our Thanksgiving menu.

I’m a huge fan of apple pie. Since we are already serving a pumpkin pie, I went into my kitchen to get creative with something that resembles an apple pie but involved a lot less preparation and work.

I wanted to stick with something easy yet delicious, so I created these Apple Cinnamon Spiced Crescent Rolls to see how they would taste. I wasn’t disappointed!

The holiday season has come and gone and it’s now a brand new year. While many are resting up from entertaining guests and preparing for the holiday season, others are looking forward to meeting their new goals for the new year. Whether that be losing weight, spending more time with family and friends, learning something new, many people look forward to a fresh new start at the beginning of a new year. Although the holiday season and filling up on delicious treats is over, this year will continue to be filled with family gatherings, festive events, and other fun celebrations. It’s never too late to enjoy yummy desserts during the new year.

If you are planning a gathering for family and friends soon (think Super Bowl!) you’ll want to make sure you provide a delicious dessert. I prefer easy to make desserts with few ingredients. This Cherry Pineapple Dump Cake Recipe is the perfect dessert to make for your guests. They will most likely return for a second helping! I’ve made this dump cake recipe a few times now. It’s so easy and affordable to make that I have it memorized and will certainly continue making it years down the road.
