Pumpkin Pie Cookies
Pumpkin Pie Cookies
Ingredients
-
1 package refrigerated pie crust (2 rolls)
-
1 can of pumpkin (15 ounce)
-
¼ cup sugar (feel free to add more)
-
2 eggs
-
1 tsp water
-
2 tsp sugar for dusting
-
½ tsp cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Put pumpkin into a medium bowl along with sugar, cinnamon and 1 egg, mix well
Whisk together the other egg and water, then set this aside
Roll out 1 sheet of refrigerated pie crust and using a cookie cutter, cut out as many pieces as you can. Note: Using a slightly larger cookie cutter for the top works best. We used 2.75” for the bottom and 3” for the top.
Using a knife or pizza cutter cut the tops into strips and set aside
Brush the egg wash around the sides of the bottom half of the cookie and place a spoonful of pumpkin mixture in the center
Place the strips of pie crust across the top of each cookie, you can use a spoon to mash the edges down.
Use the egg wash to coat the top of the cookies and sprinkle with sugar
Place cookies on a greased baking sheet and place in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Note: One small can of pumpkin should be enough filling to use two boxes of refrigerated pie crust.
