What Fall Dessert You Need To Make Immediately, Based On Your Sign

by Megan Grant

There are approximately 592 things we all love about fall, and the food is near the top of our list, somewhere in the neighborhood of the PSL and Halloween decorations. There are countless fall recipes to choose from — too many good ones to decide. If you need help narrowing it down, go with the autumnal dessert you should bake based on your sign. We already consult our horoscopes for relationship advice and career decisions; why shouldn't the zodiac apply to our fall menu, too?

We wait all year to start testing out our favorite fall dessert recipes; and food bloggers have officially started going bananas for apple pie and cute Halloween treats and anything baked with pumpkin. You don't have to be Ina Garten to want to get in on the action. Anyone with a stocked kitchen, functioning oven, and fire extinguisher handy can tackle these dessert recipes with the best of them.

Whether you're looking for something sweet and chocolatey or packing a little punch of pumpkin spice (or both, *drooling*), here are the tastiest recipes from some of the greatest food bloggers — zodiac sign-approved. Grab your pumpkin spice latte or hot chocolate, and get ready to chow down.
