No matter how stuffed your guests are after the main meal, everyone will make room for these stunning sweets.
1. No-Bake Chocolate Cream Pie with Toasted Meringue
(above)
The swirly meringue topping on this pie is stable enough to make a day ahead and keep chilled--even if you've brûléed it.
2. Apple-Almond Turnover
Some almond paste is sold in a tube; other brands will be in a can in the baking aisle. If you don't have a scale, measure ⅓ cup, packed.
A press-in crust, short bake time, and do-ahead option liberate you (and your oven) on Thanksgiving Day.
4. Nutty Chocolate Toffee Bark
This recipe is easily doubled; it's also a perfect host or hostess gift.
5. Pecan and Chocolate Tart with Bourbon Whipped Crème Fraîche
The only way to improve on pecan pie? Add chocolate.
