Delicious recipes for red velvet cakes, cupcakes, and cheesecakes.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

Easy and delicious. Presentation attractive. Sweet but not overpowering. I topped it with a bit more brown sugar and butter that melted before serving. I served for holiday and it was a hit!
