Description

Ingredients

• 1 stick butter, slightly softened + 4 Tbsp for filling
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar + 4 Tbsp for filling
• 1 egg
• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 4 Tbsp pumpkin butter
• 1 tsp each cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice (for filling)
• 4 Tbsp butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• splash of milk

Directions

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cream sugars and butter with mixer; add egg and beat until combined.
• Add dry ingredients to a sifter. Alternate adding milk and dry ingredients to the butter mixture while mixing. Then add vanilla and stir.
• Chill for 30 minutes before rolling out. Roll out into a rectangle on floured surface, spread with butter, pumpkin butter and top with brown sugar, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice.
• Carefully and tightly roll into a log, then use floss or a serrated knife to cut into equally thin slices.
• Transfer to a baking sheet (they wont spread much) and bake for 14-15 minutes, being careful not to over-bake. They will be a little tender looking, but take them out, let them rest for 3-4 minutes on the baking sheet, and them transfer them to a cooling rack.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
• Add brown sugar and stir. Simmer the mixture while stirring frequently for 2-3 minutes.
• Remove from heat and add powdered sugar and milk and stir. If you desire a thicker or thinner frosting, compensate with more milk or powdered sugar.
• Spread or pour the glaze over the cookies (I used a spoon), sprinkle with more cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice (optional) and enjoy!
• Store in an air-tight container at room temperature to keep fresh for at least 3 days.
