minutesI am a big fan of Half Baked Harvest. I love a lot of her baking ideas and recipes. This recipe doesn’t disappoint. It has pumpkin butter not pumpkin puree so if you are not a big pumpkin fan you will love these. We love all things pumpkin so these were gobbled up in no time. The Chai spice you roll the cookies in, is out of this world. The house smells so inviting and cozy. These have become a holiday favorite and my kids love to dunk them into homemade hot cocoa.
