CANDIED GINGER PUMPKIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk the flour with the baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter with the sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla followed by the pumpkin puree and candied ginger. At low speed, beat in the dry ingredients until evenly incorporated.
• Using a small ice cream scoop, scoop level tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, 1 inch apart. Using a lightly moistened finger, smooth the tops. Bake the cookies, 1 sheet at a time in the center of the oven, until risen and firm, about 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar with the butter and milk and stir until smooth and spreadable. While the cookies are still slightly warm, spoon a teaspoon of the glaze onto each one and spread slightly. Let cool completely, then transfer to a platter. Looking for more dessert ideas?

PUMPKIN GINGER COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350.
• In a large bowl assemble first 6 ingredients into a crumbly cookie dough and all dry particles are moistened.
• In a separate, small bowl mix remaining sugar and cinnamon.
• Using your hands, roll cookie dough into 1 1/2 inch balls and roll in sugar-cinnamon; place (2 inches apart) onto ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake at 350 for 12- 15 minutes until cookie tops begin to crack and are set.
• Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet 1 minute and remove.
• Stir in idea: 1/2 Cup raisins or cinnamon-covered raisins.
• The original recipe did not call for the sugar and cinnamon in the dough, just to roll into before baking.
• I think the extra sugar made them crispy on the outside but soft inside and so we loved it but you could reduce.
• If you are not a huge spice fan like myself you could also omit the cinnamon in the dough.
• Original recipe also called for 1/4 Cup chopped crystallized ginger, but I used the ground because it was all I had on hand, this is one thing I would consider trying next time.
• My cookies also (probably with the extra sugar) cooked quickly, 11 minutes was fine for me, but will of course, vary by your oven.
