A HOME cook on a budget has turned a phenomenal deal from Costco into an elegant dessert for a Thanksgiving feast - and shared how you can easily to the same.
This year, Costco is selling large pumpkin pies for only $6, and each can serve at least 12 people.
A TikTok baker, melissajorealrecipes, turned a 58-ounce pumpkin pie from Costco into pumpkin pie cups for a party of 12.
"You don't have to be a baker to bring the best party dessert. We're making pumpkin pie cups," Melissa said.
Pumpkin pie cups
Melissa said that all you need is just a few additional ingredients to make the dessert cups.
First, buy your pumpkin pie at Costco, which should be about $5.99.

"We're gonna do is scrape off the crust but don't discard it," Melissa added.
Then you're going to put out 12 small-sized cups, and using an ice-cream scoop, drop one scoop of pumpkin pie into each cup.
Making the whipped cream
Next, you're going to make the whipped cream for the pumpkin pie cups.
"Two cups of heavy cream, two teaspoons of vanilla, two tablespoons of powdered sugar. Blend til fluffy," Melissa said.

Once the whipped cream is prepped, transfer it into a Ziploc bag, and cut a small hole at the corner to pipe out onto the pumpkin pie cups.
Final toppings
After you pipe out the whipped cream onto the pumpkin cups, you can add a dash of cinnamon on top.
"Take the pie crust that we removed, sprinkle on top," Melissa said.
Last, but not least, you can add some crushed pecans on top.
