These ladies and gentlemen, are the reason why I love Pinterest:

This recipe is from the Pennies on a Platter blog and I featured it in a Pinspiration Wednesday post a few weeks ago. I made these cookies over the weekend for our church picnic and gave a few to the in-laws and my parents too. I got rave reviews and several recipe requests for them. They’re so soft, slightly chewy, and all around freaking amazing with pumpkin goodness!
The only change I made to the recipe, which you can find by clicking on the photo, is that I substituted clove for the nutmeg in the dough. I had a pasta recipe go horribly wrong that involved nutmeg a few years ago and I’m still scarred, which is the only reason why I swapped it out. The smell of nutmeg just makes me want to gag anymore.
Try them!

Two of my favorite things in one recipe.
Thanks for bringing the recipe to my attention; I’ll have to try it once I get my hands on some pumpkin.
