Now, it is time to slowly add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients. Combine until a thick batter forms.

You want the batter to be thick. If it is too thin, just place in the fridge to harden before baking.

Finally, put the confectioner’s sugar in a bowl. Start scooping cookies about a tablespoon in size and then drop in the sugar. Roll it around to coat it really good.

Put each of the cookies on the prepared cookie sheet. Once you have all of the cookies on the baking sheet, use a glass cup and gently press down on the cookie to make them a little flatter.

They do not take long to bake. Normally only about 6 to 8 minutes. Be careful to not over bake.

Let the cookies cool on wire rack.

How to store pumpkin cookies:

Store the cookies inside an airtight container. I also like to put wax paper in between each layer of cookies so they don’t stick to each other.
