PUMPKIN COOKIES WITH CINNAMON GLAZE

INGREDIENTS

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 1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp cloves

GLAZE

1 cup powdered sugar (plus more if needed for thickness)

1 tsp cinnamon

2 tbsp milk

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

1. Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes.

2. Add the pumpkin puree, egg and vanilla and mix until combined.

3. Add the dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Dough will be sticky.

4. 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.

5. Bake at 350 for 9-10 minutes.

6. Let cool for 1 minute, then move to cooling rack to finish cooling.

7. When cookies are cool, whisk together ingredients for the glaze.

8. Drizzle glaze over cookies. Allow to dry.
