Pumpkin Sugar Cookies with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

These are delicious! My new favorite fall cookie recipe. They are not overly sweet, which a few people are complaining about, but I thought they were perfect. The icing was delicious and the consistency of the cookie was heavenly; so soft! I did slightly underbake them because that’s how I prefer cookies. Definitely a keeper!

Soft and tender Lofthouse style cookies flavored with pumpkin and spices and topped with a rich cream cheese frosting.
