Pumpkin Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting

Pumpkin Cookies!

Don't really need to say much. They're absolutely addicting, and you need to bake them. Now.

Also, they probably lasted for only about 1 hour at KD before they were all gone. This shows just how great they are :)

Really these cookies are perfect for this time of year! They got me really excited for Thanksgiving, and now I can't wait for Thanksgiving Break! Enjoy!
