Yield 22

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cloves
1 cup powdered sugar (plus more if needed for thickness)

2 tbsp milk
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the pumpkin puree, egg and vanilla and mix until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Dough will be sticky.
  • Drop 2 tablespoon sized balls of cookie dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. Because the dough is sticky, I dropped a tablespoon at a time, then lightly pressed them together and flattened them just a bit.
  • Bake at 350 for 9-10 minutes.
  • Let cool for 1 minute, then move to cooling rack to finish cooling.
  • When cookies are cool, whisk together ingredients for the glaze.
  • Drizzle glaze over cookies. Allow to dry.

Categories     Cookies

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 c crisco
1 c sugar - plus 2 tbsp
2 eggs
1 c pumpkin puree
2 c flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
21/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger powder
FROSTING
3 Tbsp butter
4 Tbsp evaporated milk
1/2 c packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 c confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. In a large bowl, cream the sugar and shortening. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Beat in pumpkin. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, salt spices and baking powder. Beat the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture until thoroughly mixed. Stir in nuts.
  • 2. On a greased sheet-pan drop by teaspoonfuls or I use my smallest cookie scoop. Bake for 10 minutes, cool on rack.
  • 3. Frosting: In a med saucepan, cook the milk, sugar and butter until sugar and butter is melted.
  • 4. Remove from heat and cook at least until lukewarm. Whisk in vanilla and sugar until smooth.
  • 5. Frost cookies and enjoy. Cover leftovers in container.

Tips:

  • Soften your butter fully before creaming it with the sugars. This will help the cookies spread properly and give them a soft and chewy texture.
  • Don't overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the cookie 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 at a moderate temperature. A lower temperature will give you a chewy cookie, while a higher temperature will give you a crispier cookie.
  • Don't overbake the cookies. Overbaking can make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until the edges are set and the centers are almost set.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before glazing them. This will help the glaze set properly.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin cookies with glaze icing are the perfect fall treat. They're soft, chewy, and full of pumpkin flavor. The glaze icing adds a sweet and crunchy topping that takes these cookies to the next level. These cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.

Here are some additional tips for making these cookies:

  • If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
  • You can use any type of glaze icing you like. A simple powdered sugar glaze is always a good choice, but you could also try a maple glaze or a chocolate glaze.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months.
