Pumpkin Glazed Pumpkin Cookies
These soft pumpkin glazed pumpkin cookies are addicting. Almost more like a very soft scone or a muffin, they are a delicious treat without being overly sugary or rich. They were a staple fall treat in my house growing up, and I’m happy to continue the tradition and share them with you.
The Recipe
FOR THE COOKIES:
1/2 c butter
1 1/2 c brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 c canned pumpkin
1 t vanilla
2 1/2 c flour
3 t baking powder
1 t salt
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t allspice
1/4 t ginger
FOR THE GLAZE:
1 1/4 c powdered sugar
2 T soft butter
1 t cinnamon
1/4 t allspice
3 T canned pumpkin
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs and pumpkin until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla.
Measure dry ingredients and mix in a separate bowl. Add creamed mixture to make a soft dough.
Spoon onto a greased sheet and bake 12-15 minutes.
For the glaze: stir together ingredients till smooth. Spoon over the cookies after they come out of the oven, while they are still warm.
