What a wonderful aroma that fills the house as these delicious cookies bake. The creamy caramel icing tops these gems off perfectly! My first batch vanished before I placed the second pan in the oven. Make some for your family, they'll be happy you did. Enjoy!

These cookies were a hit! They disappeared from the plate so quickly, I barely had a chance to try one. The glaze added a perfect touch of sweetness to the pumpkin flavor.
