Brown Sugar Pumpkin Cookies

October 14, 2016 by Life is but a Dish 19 Comments

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Brown Sugar Pumpkin CookiesI’m back on the pumpkin train. It’s pretty much impossible not to be! It’s just SO good. Agree? Are you with me?

I could definitely eat pumpkin bread and/or muffins all day long. Like, if I had to ONLY eat pumpkin muffins for the next month, I’d be okay with that. But today, I decided to make pumpkin cookies. Not just any pumpkin cookie.

Brown sugar pumpkin cookies. Yep. 

Brown Sugar Pumpkin CookiesAnd not just any brown sugar. I use T-Sugar’s Belgian Cassonade Sugar. It’s the kind of sugar I could totally eat straight out of the bag with a spoon. (Not that I’ve ever done that). 

Brown Sugar Pumpkin CookiesWe also need to discuss the texture of these cookies. If you’re one of those people who doesn’t like cake-y textured cookies, then these aren’t for you. I, on the other hand happen to love it. These cookies are super soft, and almost have a cake-like/muffin top like texture. I’m totally into it. 

Brown Sugar Pumpkin CookiesAnd the flavor?! Out of this world. Pumpkin spice to the max! Oh, and that glaze to top it off?

Everything.

    Thank you for sharing!
    Where do you purchase the T sugar? Will it make that much of a difference if I just use regular sugar?

    These cookies sound great and I’m going to make them today for a Halloween party! However, You don’t say in the recipe to add the flour mixture to the butter/sugar mixture. I’m guessing you had it after you add the egg and vanilla, ,correct?

      Hi Belinda! Unfortunately I do not have the calories and/or carb count for these. Not sure I wanna know 🙂 But there are many online free tools you can use to find out by plugging in the ingredients! I’m so happy you loved the cookies!
