My boyfriend is Guatamalan and Puerto Rican, and I've been invited to Thanksgiving at his house.
My boyfriend told me about how everyone would bring over meals to whomever's house the Thanksgiving is at... and, since I'm going...
... I'm figuring I should make something. Most likely a dessert...
... does anybody know any 150 minutes (2.5 hrs) or less desserts I could make, preferably with a Thanksgiving theme?
Thank you ahead of time for your help.

A really easy dessert but one that isn't Puerto Rican is pecan pie. If you want something with more latin flare try flan. The recipes are below. If I had to chose I'd do the pecan pie. I've made it for years and people always just LOVE it and it's EASY.
Here's recipes for both...
PECAN PIE
1 cup white corn syrup
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter, melted
3 eggs
1 cup chopped pecans
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie
DIRECTIONS
Combine syrup, sugar, salt, and melted butter or margarine. Slightly beat the eggs, and add to sugar mixture. Beat well, and pour into uncooked pie shell. Sprinkle pecans on top.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 to 60 minutes
FLAN
3/4 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 3/4 cups water
1 (14 ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT evaporated milk)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In heavy skillet, over medium heat, cook sugar, stirring constantly until melted and caramel-colored. Pour into ungreased 1 1/2 -quart ring mold* or 9-inch round or square baking pan, tilting to coat bottom completely. In medium bowl, beat eggs; stir in water, EAGLE BRAND®, vanilla and salt. Pour over caramelized sugar; set pan in larger pan (a broiler pan). Fill larger pan with 1-inch hot water. Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool. Chill. Loosen side of flan with knife; invert onto serving plate with rim. Garnish as desired. Refrigerate leftovers.

As a Puerto Rican in manhattan, that's with the aid of fact we adore Hip Hop lmfao. I stay in Florida and goof quantity of Ricans hate blacks exceedingly in proper Florida. while i became into in extreme college maximum communities hang with their very own clique, whites, blacks, Ricans, and different.

Easy as Pie...
make a pie:
bean pie
pecan pie
or sweet potato pie
A little creativity...
make a Mojito cake - I never had one but it sounds good (kinda like a rum cake but with a Puerto Rican Flare)
Traditional fare...
Pumpkin cookies
cheese cake
sugar cookies
fruit cake
Below is just brainstorming
Oatmeal raisin cookies with coconut, dried cherries, golden raisins and butterscotch morsels.
Key lime pie
banana pudding with meringue and nilla wafers

Being Puerto Rican myself i would suggest making Puerto Rican Bread Pudding. It's one of my favorites and easy to make. Here's a link to the recipe:

What the Hell is a PR Thanksgiving? It's an American Holiday. Just park on the lawn and smell bad.
