I had these for the first time last year at a luncheon at school. I did not pass go, I did not wait to ask for the recipe. I love pumpkin. I pretend like it cancels out the stick of butter, and truckload of sugar when I mix it up with desserts. These cookies are no exception. They are soft, and yummy, and deliciously fabulous. I'd say they were perfect for fall, but why limit yourself like that? I can't wait to see what Veronica shares this year at work.
