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.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

First tasted this at a Bed and Breakfast Inn and found it delicious. It's very rich and sweet but worth the time to serve it for a special breakfast. It was served with whipped cream on top, slices of orange and a few strawberries. Not only mouth watering but a nice presentation with the fruit.
