No need to fuss with rolling pins when you’re craving the quintessential flavors of autumn!

As soon as the leaves begin to hint at their changing colors and the air gets that crisp, inviting chill, my mind immediately turns to pumpkin. I simply couldn’t let another autumn pass without sharing a delightful pumpkin recipe, and these Pumpkin Sugar Cookies were the first call of the season. Frosted generously with a rich cinnamon buttercream, they embody everything wonderful about fall baking.

These cookies share a delightful softness with my popular chocolate sugar cookies and vibrant orange cookies, but with a distinctly autumnal twist that makes them utterly irresistible. The addition of real pumpkin puree and a blend of warm spices transforms a classic sugar cookie into a seasonal sensation.

I don’t know about you, but I have an undeniable soft spot for decorating sugar cookies, especially with sprinkles! Truth be told, I might just be a sprinkles hoarder. There’s something so joyful about adding a pop of color and texture to a freshly baked treat. Do you prefer the classic, elongated jimmies, or are you a fan of the tiny, crunchy nonpareils? While I admittedly love all sprinkles equally, the traditional kind often win out for their charming appearance.

However, let me be clear: I am by no means a master cookie decorator. My skills extend to simple designs, much like those on my chocolate chip cut-out cookies. You won’t find any award-winning intricate piping here, and that’s perfectly fine! The beauty of these pumpkin sugar cookies is that elaborate decoration isn’t even necessary. The dough is designed for ease – no rolling, no chilling, and no cookie cutters required. Just a simple scoop, and you’re ready to bake!

As they bake, these delightful cookies will spread ever so slightly and puff up beautifully, creating soft, pillowy centers with just a hint of a crispy edge. This unique texture makes them incredibly satisfying. Once they’ve cooled completely, the magic truly happens when you slather them with that creamy cinnamon buttercream, adding an extra layer of spice and indulgence that perfectly complements the pumpkin flavor. These cookies are guaranteed to become a fall favorite in your home.

Cadbury Egg Surprise Cookies

Irresistible Cadbury Egg Cookies: Your Ultimate Easter Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

These Cadbury Egg Cookies are the perfect blend of classic comfort and festive delight, featuring soft, chewy chocolate chip cookies with a magical Cadbury mini egg hidden inside. They’re an absolute must-make for Easter, offering an easy yet impressive treat that will charm everyone!

For many, Easter isn’t just about spring and renewal; it’s a vibrant celebration brimming with delightful candies. From the iconic chocolate bunnies to the charming marshmallow peeps and a rainbow of jelly beans, the holiday boasts a unique confectionery allure. Yet, for true candy enthusiasts, one treat often reigns supreme: the Cadbury Creme Egg. There’s an undeniable magic in that chocolate shell encasing a sweet, creamy, fondant center, resembling a perfect egg yolk.

Years ago, the discovery of mini Cadbury Creme Eggs, alongside their equally beloved cousins, the solid chocolate Mini Eggs with their crunchy candy shells, opened up a world of new baking possibilities. It sparked an idea: why not combine the comforting familiarity of homemade chocolate chip cookies with the delightful surprise of these Easter treasures? The result? These incredible Cadbury Egg Cookies – a true fusion of two favorites, creating a dessert that’s as fun to make as it is to eat!

Imagine your favorite classic chocolate chip cookie, but with an exciting twist. Each cookie cradles a hidden mini Cadbury egg, much like my popular caramel stuffed chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter stuffed cookies. The concept is simple yet brilliant: take your go-to chocolate chip cookie dough, carefully wrap it around a mini egg, and bake until golden. The mini creme eggs offer an extra gooey, almost caramel-like center when warm, while the solid chocolate mini eggs provide a delightful pocket of pure chocolate and a satisfying crunch. Prepare yourself for a treat so good, even the Easter Bunny might ask for the recipe!
