Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl whisk together flours, baking powder, salt, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and set aside.
- In a medium bowl beat together butter and sugar until light and creamy. Stir in pumpkin puree and beat in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla.
- Mix the dry and wet ingredients together forming the dough. Stir in the pumpkin seeds.
- Divide the dough in half and put in the refrigerator for an hour.
- Shape each piece into a rectangle about 11" long, 4" wide, and 1/2" thick. Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes. With a serrated knife slice the dough into 1/2" slices. You can also slice on a diagonal. Place the pieces upright and bake for about 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
For chocolate dipping:
- Melt 1 cup of chocolate according to packaged directions. Dip half of the biscuit into the chocolate and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of pumpkin seeds. Place on parchment lined baking sheets and let chocolate set.
Notes
- You may use all-purpose flour in place of the whole wheat flour. The total recipe should yield 3 1/2 cups. If the dough is too sticky, add more flour a tablespoon at a time.
