It’s the most wonderful time of the year thanks in no small part to candy canes everywhere—even in this chocolate bark.

We confess, we'd never imagined you could turn ribs fall-off-the-bone tender in 30 minutes. Until this recipe made believers out of us.

This is not the sweet, gooey tzimmes of your childhood. Nope. So don't be surprised when that old familiar flavor pales in comparison.

"Transcendent" is how the author describes these rugelach. We'd like to add "flaky," "tender," and "perfect" to the list of apt adjectives.

Essentially a slightly tipsy cheesecake, this bourbon-enhanced eggnog pie is something we're classifying as "holiday desserts for parties where people like to party."

The pumpkin spice everything craze has made its way through most major foodstuffs--including this dreamy, warmly spiced ice cream that we're frankly quite smitten with.

Practically instant gratification with its blink-and-you'll-miss-it rise and its straightforward mixing method. And oooooh the taste!

At long last, a slice of pumpkin pie that can be considered complete in and of itself—no dollop of whipped cream required. Pumpkin and meringue. So happy together.

"My new go-to sweet potato casserole." "A keeper." That's what folks are saying about this insanely easy sweet potato casserole.

Cheese straws that marry a cute form with a nonbreakable function. And that's to say nothing of the rich, cheesy flavor.

How to explain these wine poached pears? "Divine elegance" comes to mind. Also, easy, vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, healthy, and lovely.

Earthy collides with slightly sweet in this beautiful burnished brioche and wild mushroom stuffing. (Did we mention it's easy?)

GF? Yep. Paleo? Yeah, that too. Devoid of anything that would offend a vegan? Check. Talk about a recipe for a happy Thanksgiving.

An incredibly easy and exquisitely spiced embellishment for everything from pumpkin pie to quick breads.
