Pumpkin Spice Cutouts image

Through all the years I've been baking, I've never come across a pumpkin cookie recipe that you can actually cut out with cookie cutters. (Most I've found are drop cookies.) Each bite tastes just like pumpkin pie-delicious! -Marion Kearley, Ladner, British Columbia

Tips:

Use a sharp knife to cut out the pumpkin shapes from the dough. This will help to prevent the dough from tearing.
If the dough is too sticky, chill it for 30 minutes before rolling it out.
Bake the cookies on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. This will help to prevent the cookies from sticking to the pan.
Let the cookies cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from seeping out.
Use a piping bag to fill the cookies. This will help to create a clean and even filling.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to fill the cookies.
Serve the cookies immediately or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Cutout pumpkin sandwich cookies are a fun and festive treat that is perfect for Halloween or Thanksgiving. They are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. With a little creativity, you can create unique and delicious cookies that will impress your friends and family.
