Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh pumpkin puree. You can make your own pumpkin puree by roasting a pumpkin and then scooping out the flesh, or you can buy canned pumpkin puree.
- If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
- Don't overmix the dough, or the cookies will be tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. The edges should be golden brown and the centers should be slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before frosting them.
Conclusion:
These Frosted Pumpkin Nut Chip Cookies are the perfect fall treat. They are soft, chewy, and full of pumpkin flavor. The cream cheese frosting adds a delicious sweetness and creaminess. These cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
