Reviewers say this recipe even works with different jams, so feel free to switch it up if you don't like raspberry. 06 of 16 Dulce de Leche Cake View Recipe dotdash meredith food studios "The cake is tender and moist, and it's not too sweet to help balance out with the frosting. The frosting is delightful, it has that caramel flavor from the dulce de leche, and the optional rum complements the caramel's vanilla notes wonderfully. The hazelnuts added a great crunch factor and adds a subtly nutty flavor," says recipe creator Jasmine. 07 of 16 Chef John's Apple Fritters View Recipe Chef John "As a fellow apple fritter skeptic, I went into this recipe feeling....skeptical. However, any doubts I had were disproven by Chef John yet again," says reviewer Lacyanne. "Cooking the apples beforehand is an absolute game changer. I would try something different with the glaze next time for added flavor but these are fantastic. They also reheat in the air fryer surprisingly well." 08 of 16 Caramel Cake View Recipe This simple vanilla cake is layered with creamy, decadent caramel icing. Reviewers say the icing is so perfect that you could simply make a cake with store-bought mix because the icing steals the show. 09 of 16 The Best Banana Pudding View Recipe Dotdash Meredith Food Studios You can't beat a no-bake dessert — especially during the busy holiday season.
