3. Arizona

Featured Dish: Flan/Chocoflan

Three Words to Describe It: Innovative, Gooey, Sweet

Flan is essentially a classic caramel custard dessert. This is definitely something that everyone will love to see on the sweets table at your next holiday gathering. We chose Flan to highlight for Arizona because it is one of their most popular desserts, along side Sopapillas of course! In case you’re bored of the super traditional Flan, try some Chocoflan! According to Marcela Valladolid on the Food Network, you basically cook some flan on top of a gooey chocolate cake – wow!

Have you tried this delicious holiday treat yet? Your thoughts? Let’s hear it!

4. Arkansas

Featured Dish: Possum Pie

Three Words to Describe It: Creamy, Chocolatey, Layers

Upon doing some research for some of Arkansas’ most famous flavors, I came across something called Possum Pie. At first, I did legitimately think that it took possum meat and made it into some sort of mince pies, much like you see in the UK; however, I was dead wrong, and I’m actually glad that I was. A traditional and classic Possum Pie consists of creamy chocolate and cream cheese pie layers, all brought together on top of a classic pecan shortbread crust. Yes please!
