I had just sworn off all desserts until Thanksgiving (I'm saving myself for pumpkin pie), when I made the mistake of opening my November issue of Better Homes and Gardens.
I found this:
I have to make it. It's like I don't even have a choice.
I'll tell you how it is, but I'm sure it will be divine.
In case you can't read the recipe, here it is:
Prepare and chill 4-serving-size package of instant vanilla pudding. Then beat 2 cups whipping cream with 1/4 cup sugar until soft peaks form. Cut 8 slices of pumpkin bread into cubes. Layer the following into 8 to 10 small serving dishes: pudding, whipped cream, and pumpkin bread. Top each with a dollop of pumpkin butter, a drizzle of caramel sauce, and chopped walnuts. This dessert holds in the fridge up to two hours before serving.
Is your mouth watering yet?

Oh me oh my. And, coincidentally, I have a batch of your pumpkin bread in the oven right now! So my mouth is already watering...
ReplyDeletei tore out that same recipe. we must have pumpkin in our blood or something. :)
ReplyDeleteOooo - yes! That looks divine! The same "call to bake" happened to me over the new issue of Martha Stewart. There is a butterscotch-pecan cake that almost took my breath away. I love me some dessert!
ReplyDeleteOh my scrumptious! What's pumpkin butter? Where do you get it? Am I so lame for not ever hearing of it?!
ReplyDeleteI am totally making this. I even have mini trifle bowls from Crate and Barrel! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteAny time I tell myself I'm swearing off something I end up eating twice as much. Seriously.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this recipe. It looks SO GOOD.
Completely watering. That looks super tasty.
ReplyDeleteat least yo had sworn off of them. i can't even seem to do that. those look yummy. thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI saw it yesterday, too, and immediately wanted to make it. I was a bit confused about the layering, but who cares?
ReplyDeleteyum! I must try that.
ReplyDeletePumpkin butter? Is this something I need to make or can I buy it?
since i'm not quite sure how to make pumpkin butter, i was just planning on leaving it out. i am sure it would still taste delicious.
ReplyDeleteYou can buy pumpkin butter from Sprouts :)
ReplyDelete8-10 small serving dishes, huh? How many in your family? 5? Let us know if you need anywhere to put the left-overs. :)
