This sounds really good. Afterall how could you go wrong with anything that is pumpkin flavoured.
This time of year I like because of all the pumpkin foods that show up at the local market. I do on
occasion make my own but I like sampling all the different things that people make out of pumpkin.
I love most things pumpkin but I do not like pumpkin pie. For me it is a texture thing.
 
Wow, love the sound of that! :chef: Will have to try and make these! I think pumpkin puree is available from tesco so will have to have a look! :D
 
This sounds like a great recipe, perfect for this cooler fall weather. This is the only time of year to indulge in pumpkin flavour - cookies, cupcakes, pies, etc. These cookies would go great with a spiced pumpkin latte. Hmmmm. I love the flavours/spices of pumpkin pie and this looks like a great way to get it without having to make a pie. Thanks for sharing. I think my kids will love them as they love anything with that sugary glaze on top.
