PUMPKIN SANDWICH COOKIES



Pumpkin Sandwich Cookies image

Ah, pumpkin! Little sandwich cookies full of delicious, healthy spicy pumpkin & smooth & creamy cream cheese filling. Wonderful with a mug of hot cider (or even Recipe#235381 if you are staying home by the fire). Found in The Washington Post who adapted it from a Land O' Lakes recipe (mmmm butter). The cookie sandwiches be made assembled, covered and refrigerated for 3 days. Unfilled cookies can be cooled completely, individually wrapped with plastic wrap and frozen for a month. Defrost, still wrapped, for 30 minutes at room temperature before filling. The filling can be assembled and refrigerated up to to 4 days in advance. Allow it to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before using. Makes 2 1/2 dozen bite-size sandwich cookies or about sixteen 2-inch sandwich cookies.

Time 55m

Yield 16-30 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (may substitute 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar, packed
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature (1 stick)
1/2 cup canned pumpkin (100-percent pure)
1/4 cup whole milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 -4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted plus more for optional dusting

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.

Reynolds® Parchment Paper

1 cup canned pumpkin
6 ounces softened cream cheese
⅓ cup softened butter
½ (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 ¾ cups powdered sugar

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your cookies a richer flavor than canned puree. To make your own pumpkin puree, simply roast a pumpkin until tender and then scoop out the flesh.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when they are done. If you bake them too long, they will be dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin sandwich cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for fall. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Try adding different spices to the dough, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger. You can also use different fillings, such as cream cheese, chocolate ganache, or fruit preserves.
