Description
Delicious soft pumpkin cookies, sandwiched together with cream cheese frosting. Perfect fall snack!
Ingredients
- 4 whole Eggs
- 1-¼ cup Vegetable Oil
- 1-½ cup Sugar
- 1 can Pumpkin (15 Oz.)
- 3 cups Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3-½ teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 package Cream Cheese Softened (8 Oz.)
- ½ cups Butter, Softened
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- 4 cups To 5 Cups Confectioners Sugar
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix eggs, oil, sugar and pumpkin until smooth. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon and stir until smooth. Drop by small scoopfuls onto a greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet. Bake for 9 minutes until done, but not crispy. Cool on a cooling rack.
For the filling, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add vanilla and milk, then 4 cups of confectioner’s sugar. Beat until smooth and fluffy. If the mixture is too runny, you can add 1 more cup of confectioner’s sugar.
Spread frosting on half of the cookies and top with remaining cookies. Store in the refrigerator. These can also be frozen.

Uh oh totally missed the oil when making these cookies but didn’t even realize it until I read through the reviews!
Also only used a cup of sugar and 3 cups of powdered sugar in the icing and they turned out just fine.
Would be yummy gluten free too.

These are delicious!! They are a wonderful treat. I live in an Amish area and they taste like the real thing. I also made some on the smaller side for some mini-whoopies!

The cake part of the whoopie pie needs some work – mine came out a little too flat for what I was looking for. Perhaps I’ll try a little less oil next time and add some more spices to give them more flavor.

These are sooo good! I made them today for a lunch-get-together. I loved seeing the recipe, since I lived in Maryland and we would drive to Pennsylvania just for the good Amish cooking. Divine! I made a dozen and then froze the rest to be eaten later!
