I love the warm, inviting smell of spiced cookies in the oven in fall. This recipe makes great, cake-like cookies that are wonderful for pumpkin whoopie pies or topped with a bit of cream cheese frosting and some toasted pecans. If you want to frost the cookies, try the Cream Cheese Frosting recipe from Drop.
