Best Pumpkin Cookies

    Cuisine:

    What can I say about these amazing pumpkin cookies... they are absolutely delicious! Let me put it this way. I baked these every year at Thanksgiving time for my job. My co-workers would come up to me two months in advance to make sure I was making them. One girl who resigned actually called me and asked what day I was bringing them in so that she could stop by - just for these cookies! Another co-worker said she didn't even like pumpkin, but she loved these. The consistency is more cake-like than cookie. The glaze on top of these cookies is fabulous! At least, I think so. I noticed a few of you who rated this recipe said it was too sweet. That is why I suggested it may be omitted, or if you wish, use your own icing. Lots of you have added nutmeg.. hey, make it all your own. That's what this is all about! : )

    3
    Done

    7

    For Glaze:

    12
    Done

    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.
