So I absolutely love the flavors of fall and winter... pumpkin, spice (cinnamon, nutmeg, etc.), etc.
I was searching on allrecipes.com (my new favorite website) and found a cookie that seemed too easy to be good. It only has three ingredients....Spice Cake Mix, Canned Pumpkin, and Pumpkin Pie Spice.. and you can ice it with cream cheese frosting ( i would suggest this). While I am a big advocate for taking time to cook things.. I like easy and cheap recipes too! I was skeptical that these cookies would be good because they have not eggs, butter, oil, etc... I took on the challenge though!
When I was at the store I bought Duncan Hines Spice Cake and a can of pumpkin (beware..sometimes you cannot find canned pumpkin except for around the holidays). I mixed the ingredients together and... surprisingly it came together in a very thick batter. I put rounded spoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet and put them in the oven for about 18 minutes. They don't flatten really ..so you can put them close together.
After they had cooled I iced them with cream cheese frosting.
They were absolutely amazing! They had a nice cake like texture, full of fall flavor (but not overwhelming), are a good source of fiber, low in fat.. so besides the icing.. they are really good for you!
I would make these any day! YOU MUST TRY THEM.
p.s. other adds in include chocolate chips!
