Soft Pumpkin Cookies topped with Coffee Frosting are one of my favorite Fall desserts! If you can’t get enough of coffee combined with pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spices, then this is the treat for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who said Pumpkin Spice Latte’s are only for drinking?!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ha!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love adding coffee to my baked goods, like my Pumpkin Spice Latte Bread<\/a> or Cappuccino Muffins<\/a>. If you’re a coffee lover like me, then you totally get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, I have to be careful how much coffee I consume on a daily basis. If I drink too much, the caffeine shakes quickly take over. It’s a real bummer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So instead of drinking coffee every day, I’ve been enjoying adding coffee flavor to more and more of my baked goods. So I don’t get quite as much caffeine, but I can still enjoy that yummy coffee flavor. It’s a win-win!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Soft Pumpkin Cookies with Coffee Frosting are the epitome of that, in the best-Fall-dessert-ever kind of way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picture this: soft cookies (sort of cake like) filled with pumpkin<\/strong> puree and bursting with pumpkin pie spices<\/strong>. Then, the cookies are topped with a buttery, creamy, coffee-flavored frosting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oops, I’m drooling again. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, after you add the frosting on top of the cookies you get to add sprinkles<\/strong>! I love making these cookies with my kids, with 1\/2 a batch of coffee frosting and 1\/2 a batch of plain vanilla frosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That way we all get to enjoy the deliciousness of Soft Pumpkin Cookies, with 1\/2 a batch of “adult” cookies and 1\/2 a batch of “kid” cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there’s one fun Fall-inspired treat you make this year, make it these!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
