Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Sandwich Cookies
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my privacy policy.
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.
What You’ll Need:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
8 Tbsp (1 stick) of butter, softened
1/3 cup pumpkin puree
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Snickerdoodle cookies {ya’ll already know I am hardly a baker so here is the recipe I used for my cookies}
Let’s Make It:
1) In a mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until well combined.
2) Grab your pumpkin and add it to the cream cheese mixture. Beat to combine.
3) With the mixer running, slowly add the powdered sugar in batches. Allow each batch to be incoporated before adding another. Add in cinnamon and nutmeg and beat until combined.
4) Spread icing in between snickerdoodle cookies to create a sandwich. Try not to eat the entire batch.
Have you broken out the pumpkin yet and starting cooking? What are some of your favorite ways to use pumpkin?

Yummy! These are two of my favorite flavors together! Thanks for sharing the icing recipe…I’m thinking of so many other uses for it too!

You are certainly welcome! I have used this icing so many times that my family may be starting to get pumpkin icing out.
this looks absolutely wonderful! i will definitely try it out!!
Thanks! I was really happy with how they tasted.
What a fantastic idea! Snickerdoodles are so good by themselves but I’m sure they taste incredible with the pumpkin cream. Very creative 🙂
Happy Blogging!

I love snickerdoodles too! Thanks for stopping by.
Oh my, these look so delicious! I can already tell these will be a big hit with my son who loves snickerdoodles and pumpkin pie.
Oh good! I hope you give them a try and let me know how he likes them.
I think I could eat the icing without the cookie! Great combination of flavors.
Haha…I may or may not have eaten some icing from a spoon after making these. I’m not telling though 😉
I love every single thing about this recipe. And now I am hungry for some cookie yumminess.
Thanks!
Yum yum yum! My goodness, this is like a delicious double threat. Must make these asap, thanks!
Oh, please do and let me know what you think.
Two of my favorite treats, pumpkin and snickerdoodle, together in one? Yes, sign me up please!

I would omit the nutmeg but otherwise these look delicious!
Oh, do you not like nutmeg?

Thanks! Definitely love these cookies.
These sound delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

These look really good! I love that you used organic pumpkin to make the cookies. I bet these babies are stuffed with lots of Vitamin A!
We buy that brand of organic pumpkin exclusively. Love it.
Oh my goodness! I love pumpkin and I love snickerdoodle. These sound heavenly!
They definitely make a delicious combination. One of my new favorites for sure 🙂

Thanks! I thought those flavors went together so well so had to put them together in a cookie.
My hubby would go nuts for these!
These were definitely a big hit in our house.
Oh dear. I would eat them ALL. I get in trouble with fall baking 🙂
Fall baking definitely gets me in trouble. I had to switch back to cooking to keep my waistline in check.
Oh YUM!! I HAVE TO try these, thanks for posting!
I hope you do. Please come back and let me know what you think!
Now these look amazing. And awesome photos too!
Thanks! They are one of my new favorite cookies!
Snickerdoodles are my very favorite cookie. I never really thought of adding some pumpkin to them. That would be perfection!
Aren’t snickerdoodles absolutely delicious?!
Absolutely everything is coming up pumpkin this time of year. I am sick of pumpkin, but those cookies look and sound so delicious!!!! I may be getting over my sickness.
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 😉
The pictures are so nice I feel as if I can smell them! Great job. I have to try these now
Thanks! Let me know how you like them.
They look so yummy,Im definitely trying this!
Thanks! Let me know how you like them.

I am a big fan…they have cream cheese with pumpkin so I was set with just the frosting 😉
