Steps:
- For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Have ready 2 ungreased baking sheets.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice blend, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
- Combine the brown sugar and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer or hand-held electric mixer; beat at medium speed for 3 minutes, until creamy. Stop to add the pumpkin puree, milk, egg and vanilla extract; beat on medium-low spead for 2 minutes, until all ingredients are incorporated. Reduce the speed to low; gradually add the flour mixture, beating until just combined.
- Drop level tablespoonfuls of dough onto each baking sheet, spaced about 1 inch apart (the cookies do not spread much). Bake one sheet at a time, for 9 to 12 minutes or until set; they should spring back when lightly pressed. Cool for 2 minutes on the baking sheet; then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat to use all the dough, making a total of 60 cookies.
- To make 2-inch cookies, drop 2-tablespoon amounts of dough on the sheets. Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, until set and springy to the touch. Cool as directed above; repeat to use all the dough, making a total of 32 cookies.
- For the filling: Combine the cream cheese, butter, cinnamon and vanilla extract in the bowl of a stand mixer or hand-held electric mixer. Beat at medium speed 3 minutes until smooth, stopping often to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Reduce the speed to low and gradually add 2 cups of the confectioners' sugar, or up to 4 cups as needed, beating well after each addition until the mixture is creamy. (More sugar means a stiffer filling.).
- Turn half the cookies flat-sides up. Spread each one with 2 teaspoons of the filling, then top with the remaining cookies. If desired, dust the tops of the cookies with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Tips:
- Softened butter is key: Make sure your butter is at room temperature before you start mixing. This will help the cookies come together more easily and will result in a smoother dough.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Use a sharp cookie cutter: A sharp cookie cutter will help you get clean, precise shapes.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake just until the edges are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool completely before decorating: This will help the frosting set properly.
Conclusion:
These cutout pumpkin sandwich cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for Halloween or any fall gathering. With their pumpkin-shaped design and cream cheese frosting filling, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So gather your ingredients and get baking!
