It's time for fall baking! Fall is undoubtedly the season of pumpkin spice. The lattes, pumpkin pie, pumpkin roll and so many other treats made with pumpkin spice like smoothies, ice cream, pumpkin pancakes, cereal, creamer, even Peeps. Want even more pumpkin in your life? You can add pumpkin spice pudding cookies to your list, too!
I reviewed several cookie recipes and selected one based on its ratings, prep/cooking time and the ease of the recipe. This one by Creations by Kara is my favorite. There are only three steps! Here is your shopping list for these moist pumpkin spice pudding cookies: butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, a box of instant pumpkin spice pudding mix, pumpkin puree (not pie filling), vanilla extract, flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, salt and baking chips (white or chocolate).
Serve these cookies for dessert after dinner or as a sweet snack during the day. They also look great on your Thanksgiving dessert table!
