Thank you for sharing this recipe. I love all things pumpkin and pumpkin cookies are no exception. I hate an iced pumpkin scone yesterday at a work meeting and it was very delicious. I try to eat pumpkin as much as I can during the fall and winter months because I don't have it at all during the spring and summer.
