Cinnamon Frosted Pumpkin Cookies

I've had so much fun coming up with new recipes.  Some were better than others but this pumpkin cookie was exceptional.  

Since I always need something sweet at the end of my meal, I made a batch of cinnamon frosted pumpkin cookies.  I got the recipe from the blog "For the Love of Cooking".    

Cinnamon Frosted Pumpkin Cookies
2 cups flour                                         2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup whole wheat flour                1/2 cup butter
1 teaspoon baking powder                1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda                 1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 teaspoon salt                                 1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla

Combine flour, wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Cream butter, sugar and pumpkin pie spice.  Add pumpkin, egg and vanilla.

Add dry ingredients.

Drop onto baking sheets.  Bake 15 minutes at 350.

Cool on wire racks.

Cinnamon Icing
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar
3-4 Tablespoons milk
1 Tablespoon melted butter

Combine icing ingredients and spoon over cookies.  

​These cookies were absolutely wonderful. Soft and moist and delicious.
