Very few food items say fall like pumpkin, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Combine them all together and you have fall in a dish…or in this case on a cookie sheet.  I make some pumpkin cream cheese frosting and used it to make pumpkin snickerdoodle sandwich cookies.  So, grab some apple cider and let’s start enjoying these delicious cookies.

    1. Haha…you are so right. It is like the internet explodes with pumpkin around October 1st. These aren’t super pumpkin-y so you can just pretend there is only cream cheese frosting in the middle ๐Ÿ˜‰
