Hey, pie. We need to talk. I'll always love you, but I want to start seeing other pumpkin desserts. I mean, check out what people are saying about these other sweet pumpkin treats. Can you blame me for being tempted to stray into the no-pie zone?

A warmly spiced made-from-scratch pumpkin cake is baked in a jelly roll pan so it comes out ultra-thin, and is rolled up with a cream cheese filling to make a pinwheel of fall-flavored deliciousness with every slice.

"THIS is one of the most perfect cupcakes I have ever had. They are moist, flavorful & perfectly spiced. This Thanksgiving, I think I'll be making these cupcakes instead of pie!" —Marie Robertson Klein
A cupcake this rich and spicy needs only a simple swirl of cream cheese frosting to top it off. Embellish with crystalized ginger for a sweet/hot treat.
Pumpkin Cannoli
![three pumpkin filled cannolis on a platter](https://www.allrecipes.com/thmb/V5sVxpFcoDHwRWWhXLvUbBMgvbQ=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/2773857-pumpkin-cannoli-photo-by-kims-cooking-now-color-adjusted-d044e6fc48174a7298c3ddbc4c2556b9.jpg)
You're going to want to drop the pie and keep the cannoli, especially when it's stuffed with creamy, spicy pumpkin/mascarpone/ricotta filling. Kim's Cooking Now makes her own cannoli shells, and presses mini chocolate chips.
"Excellent variation on traditional Cannoli. I made this for Christmas brunch and it was a huge hit with my family. I was lucky to get a taste myself." —mfields

The glaze: Simmer 1 cup whipping cream with 3/4 cup real maple syrup for about 20 min; stir in 1/2 cup chopped pecans and chill." —SARAH_LIZ
