Growing up in the South, I’ll tell you—there is simply nothing like a homemade caramel cake gracing the kitchen counter, especially when you know you put in the time (and just a little bit of love) to make it yourself. My granny used to say that every Southern woman should have a caramel cake recipe tucked in her recipe box, right behind her biscuit recipe and somewhere close to her best chocolate pie. If you’ve never had the sort of caramel icing that melts into a cloud when you slice your fork through a soft, tender cake layer—friend, you’re in …

It’s a dish we can’t imagine Thanksgiving—or honestly, any big family potluck—without. There’s just something about that dreamy, creamy sweet potato base and the crunchy pecan topping that makes you feel instantly cozy inside (my sister’s been caught eating it cold for breakfast, and she’s not even embarrassed).
