10. Cherry lattice pie
Get the recipe: Cherry lattice pie
Everyone loves pie, especially when it's packed with sweet cherries cased in a buttery puff pastry. We'd recommend serving this with a generous scoop of ice cream or if you're keeping on the warming theme, custard of course!
11. Chocolate torte
Get the recipe: Chocolate torte
This chocolate torte really does taste as good as it looks. Our favourite part of this naughty dessert is the buttery chocolate ganache covering the whole thing.
12. Plum crumble
Get the recipe: Plum crumble
Plum crumble is a classic and will forever remain a classic in our hearts. A oaty crumble and a tangy sweet plum filling - what more could you want? A dash of custard and you'll be warm all evening.
