5 Thanksgiving Chocolate Dessert Ideas

Nov 21, 2023Christopher Huset

Thanksgiving is a reminder to be thankful for our families– and to eat delicious food.

What better way to top off a Thanksgiving meal of turkey or ham than by enjoying a chocolatey dessert along with your pumpkin pie? At Legacy Chocolates, we believe that chocolate is beneficial to your health and makes any get-together special. That’s why we’ve rounded up several ways to enjoy chocolate this Thanksgiving.

Share the love by incorporating these recipes and ideas into your next Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving events!


1. Beet Chocolate Cake


It sounds strange, but beets are a unique way to spruce up a dessert. If you love the rich, earthy taste of beets, you’ll love our recipe for beet chocolate cake. By using Legacy Chocolates’ artisanal chocolate and fresh, in-season beets, you can enjoy a delicious fall cake that will have you craving more.


2. Dark Chocolate Creme Brulee


We already know that chocolate and cherries go together, so why not create a decadent dark chocolate and cheery creme brulee to enjoy with your family? Try our recipe using Legacy Chocolate’s 99% dark chocolates as the primary ingredient, but don’t forget to melt the chocolate without clumps!


3. Sipping Chocolate


If you love pumpkin or apple pie too much to replace it with a different dessert, try pairing your favorites with sipping chocolate. Our Mayan Sipping Chocolate is a Central American delicacy that is dense, smooth, and rich. It is meant to be ingested in small sips to enjoy the flavor profile. Paired with your favorite fall dessert, sipping chocolate elevates your sweet tooth experience.


4. Chocolate Truffles


When your plate is cleared of turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, and other Thanksgiving staples, you may be too full for an entire slice of pie. Instead, enjoy the delicate taste of Legacy Chocolate’s truffles. Our truffles are the perfect bite-sized dessert to top off a meal, especially if you pair it with our signature decaf coffee.

Our truffles come in various flavors, including mint, espresso, caramel, caramel pecan, almond, double, classic, and Himalayan caramel.


5. Potion #9 Chocolate Sauce


A gram cracker crust, pumpkin pie filling, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream wouldn’t be complete without a drizzle of Potion #9 Chocolate Sauce. Hand-made in small batches using only premier ingredients, Potion #9 is a smooth, creamy sauce that compliments any dessert. You can even drop a little in your post-meal coffee for an elevated coffee drink.
