Variations Ideas:

• Cookie Base – We used a premade pie crust but you can also make these with sugar cookie dough.
• Seasoning – If you want, you can add in additional spices to the pumpkin. Our suggestions would be a teaspoon of nutmeg, ginger or allspice.
• Cream Cheese Frosting – Drizzle a cream cheese frosting over the top for added flavor.

Step by Step Instructions:

Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, stir together the pumpkin, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice.

Step 2 – Roll one of the pie crust onto a cutting board or a flat working surface. Use a 2 ½ inch cookie cutter to cut the pie crust into circles.

Step 3 – Place approximately 1 teaspoon of the pumpkin filling in half of the circles and then place the other circles on top.

Step 4 – Seal the edges of each of the cookies with the back of a fork. Then gently make 3 incisions on top of each cookie

Step 5 – Brush the top of the cookies with the beaten egg. Then sprinkle the brown sugar on top generously.

Step 6 – Bake the cookies for 20-25 minutes until the cookies are golden light brown. Cool completely to room temperature and serve.

Mini Pumpkin Pie Cookies Tips:

• Chill Pie Crust – Make sure to keep your pie crust chilled until you are ready to assemble the cookies and work quickly when assembling the cookies so that the cookies are not tough.
• Cookie Cutter – Use a cookie cutter to cut circles in the pie crust. You can also place a glass upside down on the pie crust and cut the circles that way.
• Large Pumpkin Cookies – If you prefer you can make 4 inch handle pumpkin pie cookies. Then you can cut in serve in smaller pieces. We just enjoy the mini version better.
• Mixer – You can use an electric mixer or hand mixer to mix the pumpkin ingredients.
• Chocolate Chip – You can easily add chocolate chips with the pumpkin pie mix to add flavor.
• Pumpkin Puree – When making this recipe use pumpkin puree instead of pumpkin pie filling. The pumpkin pie filling has added ingredients that are not needed for this recipe.
