I didn't have the patience to wait for the cookies to cool completely before I iced them. I just went for it and they turned out fine.

I used store-bought pumpkin butter instead of fresh pumpkin. It was a great shortcut and the cookies turned out great.

I got creative and added a few drops of pumpkin extract to the dough. It gave the cookies an extra boost of pumpkin flavor.

I didn't have time to make the iced topping, so I just sprinkled some powdered sugar on the cookies before they cooled. They were still really good!

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pecans for chopped walnuts. The cookies were still delicious and nobody even noticed the difference.

Overall, these cookies were pretty good. The pumpkin flavor was nice and the iced topping was a nice touch. However, I found them to be a bit dry. I think they would have been better if I had added a little more butter or oil to the dough.

I love pumpkin cookies with a kick, so I added a teaspoon of cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne pepper to the dough. They were delicious!

These cookies were so good, I ate three in one sitting! The pumpkin flavor was subtle and the iced topping was the perfect amount of sweetness.

I used gluten-free flour and these cookies turned out great! They were soft and chewy, just like the real thing.

I made these cookies with whole wheat flour and honey instead of sugar. They were still delicious and a healthier alternative to traditional pumpkin cookies.

These cookies were a hit at my holiday party! They were easy to make and everyone loved the festive pumpkin flavor. I'll definitely be making these again next year.
