With Thanksgiving around the corner we’re constantly looking for new and exciting recipes to try out. Often times though, we get stuck in a rut and stick to the traditional. We end up cooking and baking the same things over and over again for Thanksgiving. So why not step out of your comfort zone with these delicious Pumpkin Chocolate Cookie Sandwiches! They have the same classic flavors we’re looking for during this time of year, but are still something new and exciting!
In a large bowl cream together the butter and sugar on high, for about 3 to 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients and add them to the creamed butter and sugar and egg mixture. Mix until evenly combined.
Scoop out the dough into even mounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chic Tip: Use a medium or small sized ice cream scoop to evenly portion out the dough so that the cookies bake at the same time.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for about 10 to 12 minutes or until the cookies are set. Make sure to not over-bake them!
Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes and then transfer them onto a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
In the meantime, make the frosting.
Turn the cookies over and add some of the pumpkin frosting to half of them.
Sandwich them together with the remaining cookies and then place them in the fridge to set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
