BEST PUMPKIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Have ready some ungreased baking sheets.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and the sugars together until light and fluffy.
• Blend in pumpkin, egg and vanilla extract.
• In separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
• Mix flour mixture into butter-sugar mixture.
• Drop tablespoonfuls 3 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until golden around the edges.
• Remove warm cookies and transfer to racks.
• Let cool completely for a least one half hour, then frost with glaze.
• For Glaze:.
• In a medium saucepan, heat butter and brown sugar over medium heat until bubbly. Cook, stirring constantly, for one minute or until slightly thickened. Beat in the milk. Blend in confectioner's sugar until the glaze is smooth and spreadable. Using a silicone basting brush, which I love and use religiously now, or a butter knife to spread glaze on cookies is the best tip. Please note; this glaze will harden fairly quickly. I suggest that you keep the saucepan over the stove on the lowest heat possible to prevent it from hardening.

CHOCOLATE-GLAZED PUMPKIN COOKIES

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin-pie spice, and salt; set aside.
• Using an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg; beat until smooth. With mixer on low speed, alternately add flour mixture in two parts and pumpkin puree in one, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix just until combined (do not overmix).
• Drop dough by heaping tablespoons onto two baking sheets, about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake until puffed and edges are golden, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating sheets once during baking. Immediately transfer cookies to wire racks, and cool completely.
• When cookies have cooled, set them (still on rack) over a baking sheet or waxed paper. Place chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over (not in) a saucepan of simmering water; stir until almost melted. Remove from heat; stir until completely melted. Pour chocolate into a resealable plastic bag. Snip off a corner with scissors or a knife to make an 1/8-inch hole; pipe chocolate over cookies. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm, about 20 minutes.
