Pumpkin Sugar Cookies

These Pumpkin Sugar Cookies are soft, sweet and full of delicious fall pumpkin flavour!

I made these cookies for Halloween a couple of weeks ago, and they were so good I made another batch! And I thought it would be a good idea to share them with you once again so that you could see how they look without being all decked out for Halloween!

If you’re looking for the perfect cookie to satisfy your fall pumpkin cravings, these Pumpkin Sugar Cookies are it.  They’re soft, sweet and full of pumpkin spice.

Roll these in sugar to make them extra delicious!

They’re made extra delicious by being rolled in sugar…and for an extra treat, sprinkle on some extra once they come out of the oven.  The kids love this. Big kids too. 😉

 Yum.

This recipe makes a big batch (36 cookies), so they’re perfect for sharing and for potlucks and bake sales.  Yum.
