Author: Minimalist Baker

Recipe type: Dessert

Serves: 24 cookies

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)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Cream sugars and butter with mixer; add egg and beat until combined.
3. Add dry ingredients to a sifter. Alternate adding milk and dry ingredients to the butter mixture while mixing. Then add vanilla and stir.
4. 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.
5. Carefully and tightly roll into a log, then use floss or a serrated knife to cut into equally thin slices.
6. Transfer to a baking sheet (they won’t 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.
