Pumpkin Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting (The World's Best!) image

After getting this recipe from a friend, I have made them over 100 times for family and friends and they are always a hit, especially around Halloween and Thanksgiving! As far as the spices go, less is more; this is not a full-on pumpkin pie or pumpkin bread/cake. They're light and moist cookies with a taste of fall in every bite!

2-INGREDIENT PUMPKIN FROSTING



2-Ingredient Pumpkin Frosting image

This frosting is one of those brilliant, silly-simple recipes you'd never know was made with just two ingredients: canned pumpkin puree and chopped up chocolate. You start by cooking the pumpkin to concentrate its flavor and thicken it, then simply stir in the chocolate until it melts. The sweet and tangy results are the perfect complement to cake, and the creamy consistency spreads easily into gorgeous swoops.

  • For a more decadent frosting, consider adding a tablespoon or two of melted chocolate or caramel.
