Pumpkin

I'm originally from Johnstown, Pa and "gobs" are really big there. They are a cross between a cookie and a cake with a creamy filling in between. Pumpkin gobs are a great, sweet treat for the fall season. They are very easy to make and will be a hit for the holidays!

These were delicious! I used a mix of pumpkin puree and sweet potato puree and they were perfect.

These were a bit too dry for my taste, but I think that's because I didn't use enough pumpkin puree.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used too much sugar.

These were delicious! I used a bit less sugar than the recipe called for and they were still plenty sweet.
