Meghan Markle and Price Harry's wedding cake maker, is similar to a pie, but without all the fussiness of making the crust. "You can prep all the components ahead of time, and you

days in advance so you can prep them now and only worry about the savory stuff come Thanksgiving. Get the recipe HERE. CALIFORNIA ALMOND CAKE For those who don't like decadent desserts,
