Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting 🎃🍪
Ingredients:
For the Cookies:
½ cup softened butter
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup packed brown sugar
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 cup old-fashioned oats
For the Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting:
½ cup softened cream cheese
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, pumpkin pie spice, and oats. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Bake the Cookies: Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Frosting: While the cookies cool, prepare the cinnamon cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract, beating until the frosting is creamy and spreadable.
Frost the Cookies: Once the cookies are completely cool, spread or pipe the cinnamon cream cheese frosting on top of each cookie.
Enjoy these delightful cookies with a hot cup of coffee or tea! ☕🍂
