PUMPKIN COOKIES WITH CARAMEL FROSTING
These soft, cake-like pumpkin cookies smell wonderful and are a great reminder of autumn. The recipe came from my great-grandmother and yields a small batch, so we sometimes double it. The caramel frosting is glaze-like and quite thin, so it helps to place the cooled cookies on waxed paper while frosting. I usually use an entire can of pumpkin, rather than letting a small portion of it go to waste. Store in an airtight container for very soft cookies, store in a loosely covered container for firmer cookies.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cream butter and brown sugar for cookies together in a bowl with an electric mixer. Stir in pumpkin, then egg. Add baking soda, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir in flour. Mix in walnuts and raisins.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake each sheet on the bottom rack in the preheated oven for 6 to 7 minutes; continue to bake on the top rack until edges are golden, 6 to 7 minutes more. Continue with remaining cookie sheets in this manner. Let cookies cool on the cookie sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- While the cookies cool, melt brown sugar, milk, and butter for frosting in a medium pot over low heat. Bring to a boil; continue to boil mixture for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool for 3 to 10 minutes. The longer the mixture is cooled, the thicker the frosting will be on the cookies.
- Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the frosting mixture, stir well, and drizzle or spread onto cooled cookies. Allow the cookies to cool for 1 to 2 hours before stacking.

ALWAYS SOFT PUMPKIN COOKIES WITH CARAMEL GLAZE
These wonderful cookies have a mild pumpkin flavor, and are reminiscent of a spice cake. If you're not a fan of pumpkin pie spice, you can substitute cinnamon. The glaze is wonderful, and can be changed up by adding some maple extract to taste. I'm not real fond of pumpkin, but just love these cookies!

GLAZED SOFT PUMPKIN COOKIES
I got this recipe from the Chicago Sun Times. A couple of families were going to a corn maze and I brought these along. They were a hit! They were the perfect fall dessert. These cookies are very soft. My husband doesn't like chewy cookies but when we referred to them as little breads, he loved them.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your cookies a more intense pumpkin flavor. To make your own pumpkin puree, simply roast a pumpkin until tender, then scoop out the flesh and mash it until smooth.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Make the caramel glaze while the cookies are baking: This will give the glaze time to cool and thicken slightly before you dip the cookies in it.
- Dip the cookies in the caramel glaze while they are still warm: This will help the glaze adhere to the cookies.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will allow the glaze to set and harden.
Conclusion:
These soft pumpkin cookies with caramel glaze are the perfect fall treat. They are soft, chewy, and full of pumpkin flavor. The caramel glaze adds a delicious sweetness and crunch. These cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
