Let’s celebrate Thanksgiving with a sweet treat, shall we? I made sure to include some pumpkin, just for the season’s sake.
While I usually love to under-cook cookies, I wouldn’t recommend it with this recipe. They need to be cooked all the way through. I promise they’ll still be soft.
I hope you enjoy. F.Y.I, I’ll be taking Thursday and Friday off to soak up some family time. I am planning on posting Saturday (which isn’t a normal schedule, I know) for a cause I’ve come to fully appreciate, so be looking for that!
