These pumpkin sandwich cookies filled with cream cheese frosting are a favorite Halloween treat at my house. They’re kind of unique, because contain pumpkin and chocolate chips. You can serve them on a Halloween trays or wrap them individually as a take home treat for the guests at your Halloween party.  Here’s the recipe:

• 1 cup solid pack pumpkin
• 1 package (16 ounces) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
• 3/4 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
• 1 container prepared cream cheese frosting

Preheat oven to 350.  Line a colander with a layer of paper towels.  Place the pumpkin on top of the paper towels, and allow it to drain for 20 minutes.  Allow the chocolate chip cookie dough to soften at room temperature for about 20 minutes.  Then, mix the cookie dough with the drained pumpkin, chocolate chips, flour, and pumpkin pie spice.  Drop in rounded teaspoonfuls on greased cookie sheets, and bake for approximately 9 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes, remove from cookie sheets, and make sandwiches using two pumpkin cookies and about a teaspoon (or two!) of the cream cheese frosting. So good!
