For Thanksgiving I am going to make pecan pie, caramel apple bars and pumpkin cannoli.

I do a cookie baking day with friends a few weeks before Christmas and we each make 2-3 items and share. Have not decided those yet.

I am thinking of making:
1) Something new: Ina's pumpkin roll

3) cookies: triple ginger cookies and something chocolate

I took over cooking the extended family Thanksgiving meal a few years ago, and my family wants the same traditional meal and desserts every year--pecan pie, pumpkin pie, and chocolate chess pie, plus vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. I get full control over the Christmas menu, but that's for later.

I usually make cranberry orange bread and give that with some homemade preserves, but this year I plan to try stollen and see how that goes. Also, I plan to make “winter jam’, which is cranberry with either raspberries or strawberries.
For New Years I make a shoo fly pie.

Shoo fly Pie
9-inch pie crust
Preheat oven to 400.

1 cup boiling water
1 cup molasses
1 tsp baking soda
Dissolve soda in hot water. Stir in molasses and mix well.

1 3/4 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1/4 tsp baking soda
Mix together in a bowl to make crumbs.

Take out 1 1/2 cups crumbs and mix into molasses mixture. Pour into prepared 9” crust. Top with remaining crumbs.
Bake 15 min at 400; reduce heat to 375 and bake another 30-35 minutes. Test for doneness with toothpick in center of cake.
* Control the wet bottom by adding a ‘slight’ 1.5 cups to molasses.

Thanksgiving: pumpkin pie, apple pie, cranberry curd tart

Christmas: cutout sugar cookies, chocolate peppermint patty cookies, jewel cookies, date walnut bars. DH wants Pfeffernuesse this year, so we’ll attempt those. Molasses gingerbread.

All through the season: pumpkin bread!
