Cream Cheese Icing

Notes

  • Make sure you get purred pumpkin and NOT pumpkin pie filling.  Pumpkin pie filling will have extra sugars, and spices in it and you want to control the sugar and spices you add to these cookies. 
  • If you find that your cookies are too wet, you might try wringing your pumpkin puree out in some paper towels or cheesecloth before adding it to your ingredients.  This will cut down on extra moisture. 
  • Don’t skip freezing the cookies!  This allows the flour time to absorb the moisture from the wet ingredients and will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking. 
  • Let the cookies cool for at least 15 minutes before adding the icing.  If you don’t you will have icing running everywhere!
