I have been thinking about making something with pumpkin! This sounds yummy! I will definately have to try these out.
Ok - I made them today and they are DELICIOUS!! I am going to post it on my blog now - hope you (or your sis-in-law) don't mind! I LOVED them, they turned out great!
I agree they are the BEST!
I made these today with whole wheat flour and 1/2 the sugars... and they were really good... I didn't feel as guilty when I ate WAY tooo many! :) Thanks Melissa!
mmmmm-mmmm...can't wait to try 'em!
then i will have to spend more time sitting around at the gym!
These look great! Thanks for sharing the recipe. :)
I made these tonight with the kids and they were a huge hit! I let the girls whisk the frosting and they were able to get it very smooth without a mixer (less dishes for me)!
This is our new family favorite cookie. We had the missionaries over for dinner last night & they wanted the recipe too. I used whole wheat flour & 1/3 c more pumpkin - crazy good. Thanks very much from Memphis!
I came to your blog because of Nie Nie and Christian. Your cakes are cookies are beautiful. I made the pumpkin cookies and my daughters loved them. I will make them for a school party next week. Thank you!!

I made these over the weekend for my church. They were a huge hit. Thanks for the recipe. Im gonna link to this or post the recipe on my blog, if thats okay.
Your silhouette cookies are so beautiful and your cakes! My goodness what a talent you have! I'm in awe.
Okay, so I'm making the pumpkin cookies right NOW. Are they supposed to be "cakey"? Not crunchy, right?
I'm kinda dumb about kitchen stuff but since you said they were the best and I was sooooo taken with your other items and since I got a new KitchenAid hand mixer (bright yellow!) I decided to make 'em. I'm about to boil the frosting. The kids want them for breakfast!
These are great cookies! I saw this recipe on another blog a couple of weeks ago. YUM!
Thank you for posting this recipe! I made it this weekend and it was a huge hit! I am not a baker at all, but the recipe was really easy to follow. Thank you!
OH, these are dangerously good! My boys and I loved them! Thanks for sharing.
