Pumpkin Sugar Cookie Delight

by

You know how Septemeber is..it’s such a tease. It’s when you start to crave all things Fall, but the temperatures are still so hot. That’s why Starbuck finally got smart & started making the delicious Pumpkin Cream cold brew, am I right? For the very same reason this Pumpkin Sugar Cookie Delight is the perfect cold dessert with a flavorful Fall twist!

We had a big tease in Fall temps last weekend. Visualize me leaping through the air with glee, yes it was that perfect! Friday night lights, hoodies, a PSL in hand and I was planning my next Fall outfit centered around my latest leopard print mask. But once again we’re back up there with the temps! Ugh! I’m craving seasonal recipes everyday so Pumpkin Sugar Cookie Delight is perfect for those in between days.

We happen to be big fans of sugar cookie crusts in our house. Nothing against graham cracker crust (we like that kind too!) but the kids prefer a sugar cookie crust. My favorite mix is this kind. Yep, it’s a mix & it’s super easy. Just follow the instructions on the back of the package, spread the dough out in a 9×13 baking dish & bake accordingly. It works like a charm every time!

This Pumpkin Sugar Cookie Delight recipe comes together quickly. The longest parts are waiting for it to chill in the fridge. Personally, I don’t mind these type of recipes because I always have a load of laundry to do in between the steps!
