12 Easy Thanksgiving Desserts That Won't Put You in a Tizzy
Don't even think about serving chocolate soufflé on Thanksgiving. On a day when you're expected to be a magician -- to make a moist turkey out of a notoriously dry bird and bake rolls for 40 and light the candles in your "powder room" -- you need to choose your battles. If you're hosting this year, ask your guests to wrangle pie crusts and bake custards in water baths. You should stick to the no-fail stuff.
Here are 12 desserts that won't have you pulling at your hair when you should be eating cranberry sauce and schmoozing with your friends:

I'm going with the poached pears (I add a little clove). I'll plate them with a Creme Anglaise with a swirl of warm plum jam. Thanks. I had completely forgotten about this beautiful desert. Its a staple in Roman trattorie.
