Doesn’t fall put you in the mood for pumpkin everything? We love the flavors of autumn, including all those warm spices.
One of my favorites is this 5 minute Pumpkin Parfait. It’s creamy and decadent, made with yogurt and with ginger snap cookies. It’s the perfect dessert and super easy to make! Check out all these delicious pumpkin desserts for more ideas.
