Frosted Butter Pecan Pumpkin Cookies
Ingredients
15
oz
can of pumpkin
1
box Butter Pecan cake mix
1
egg
1
cup
pecans
chopped
For the Frosting :
1
cup
light brown sugar
1/2
cup
milk
1
tbsp
unsalted butter
1 1/2
cups
powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix all cookie ingredients in a large bowl, making sure to incorporate all the dry cake mix into the batter.
Scoop balls (I use a small ice cream scoop) onto a lined baking sheet.
Bake for 14 minutes then remove to a rack to cool.
Repeat with remaining dough.
Let cool completely before frosting.
To prepare frosting:
Add brown sugar and milk to a small saucepan over medium low heat.
Bring to a boil then cook for two minutes, stirring continuously.
Add butter and whisk until melted. Remove from heat and add powdered sugar 1 cup at a time.
Whisk until smooth then let cool.
I like to dip the top of my cookies in the frosting, swirl around, then lift up and let it set on a rack before serving.
