Another pumpkin recipe. I know.
I pulled out my great cookie cook book from the back of the kitchen and decided we are going to tackle some good cookie recipes. Chloe's choice was first, and she picked these.
This one has a new twist on the boring pumpkin cookies with added oatmeal and an orange icing on top. The orange flavoring just gives it a little sweet kick. I'd say a good choice, Chloe!
*this recipe could be easily made gluten free by using GF cake mix and GF oatmeal.
Ingredients
1 package yellow cake mix (I used vanilla, but I bet spice would work too)
1/2 cup quick oats
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 egg
1 can pumpkin puree
2 tbsp veg oil
3 cups confectioners sugar
3-4 tbsp orange juice
Preheat oven to 350. In medium bowl, combine cake mix, oats, and spice. In separate bowl, combine egg, pumpkin puree, and veg oil. pour into dry ingredients and stir until well blended. Drop spoonfuls of mix onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool on wire rack.
For icing, mix confectioners sugar and enough orange juice to achieve spreading consistency. Frost the cooled cookies. (I actually just dropped a spoonful in the middle of the cookie and it spread itself).
