Pumpkin-Pecan Cookie, With Brown Butter Frosting







I saw these posted somewhere and they look delish !! I decided I am going to make them TOMORROW!

Here's what you need:

2 Cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 C sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 C Canned pure pumpkin
1 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1/2 C Vegetable Oil
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1/2 C Chopped pecans, toasted**(Place them on a baking sheet, and bake them at 325 until they turn slightly darker.)


Frosting
1/2 C Butter
2 1/2 C Powdered sugar
1/4 C Cream Cheese
1/2 Tsp Vanilla
1 C Heavy Whipping Cream
1/4 cup chopped, toasted, pecans

Okay, just make the cookies as you normally would...dry ingredients then wet ingredients mixed in...they will turn out a bit "gooey" more than regular cookies, just grab a tablespoon and scoop them onto a baking sheet, lined with Parchment paper, for an easy clean up afterward!
Bake them at 325, for 18-20 minutes...or until a toothpick comes out clean. (so it could be faster...just check!)

They come out really puffy looking...like this.



For the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter together until they're smooth. Then add the powdered sugar and vanilla. Then slowly add the heavy whipping cream until it's the perfect consistency. Be careful NOT to overmix...or your cream will seperate!

After you're done, spread a generous amount onto each cookie and sprinkle them with chopped, toasted pecans!


If you don't want to eat them all...give them away as gifts! They're so perfect for this time of year! YUMMY!!!!! (I know I say that about everything...but seriously, they are!)
