Glazed Pumpkin Cookies


So...are you guys sick of my pumpkin recipes yet? I hope not! The Season has just begun! I am hoping to have many more coming so that by the time Thanksgiving rolls around, you have plenty of time to meal plan. 

If you like a light and fluffy cookie, then these are the cookies for you. With flavors of pumpkin pie, these cookies are begging to be served during the Halloween and Thanksgiving time of year.
