I was looking forward to these since I LOVE pumpkin cookies, but these did not do it. Sorry. The texture is funny but more so, the taste is pretty bad, even with more sugar and spices. Not very pumpkinny.

I absolutely love these. People always ask for the recipe. I use an orange flavored cream cheese frosting and they turn out great. By themselves I could agree with some of the other reviews, but I've made these every year at halloween and everyone loves them.

If you like pumpkin flavor this is the cookie for you. I did add more spice like others suggested. Flavor was just too pumkiny. Did roll and cook nicely. Definitely tasted better with frosting. I used cream cheese found on this site. Won't make again sorry.

These did not turn out for me. They cut well but were VERY bland. Tasted more like flour than pumpkin. I even added more spices like other reviwers had mentioned and it just didn't work out. I tried to salvage them with frosting and still had to throw them all away.

I made this recipe with some hestitation because the reviews were quite mixed. But my husband requested a shaped pumpkin cookie so I was happy to find this. I must say that I did NOT experience any of the problems that some did. The dough was easy to work with and although the cookie itself is not cloyingly sweet, it does get the frosting which sweetens it up considerably. I'll just mention that I used 1/2 c butter and 1/4 c shortening as I was short on the butter. Also, as with any roll-out cookie I make. I chill for a minimum two hours then take the dough out and let it come to room temperature for a minimum of 1/2 hour before rolling. No pie-crust taste here. Just yummy cookies. Thanks for the recipe.

I am sorry to say...but I have to concur with the others. This cookie DOES taste like pie crust. I even tweeked the spices and added more sugar. Difficult to roll out and weird texture. I iced with a brown sugar glaze and they still weren't edible. Won't be making this again:(

I thought it was pretty darn good. I used canned pumpkin pie mix (instead of solid pumpkin), continued with the spices, and it turned out YUMMY! (for a cookie that you decorate with sprinkles and such). Will definately make this again.

This recipe is awful. It tastes like pie crust. I tried it twice and tried vamping it up with more sugar and spice...still a big yuck. My 4 year old wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole. Don't waste time on this one!

I counteracted the blandness that others warned about by doubling all the spices, and serving them with Allspice Cream Cheese Frosting on top. They turned out great.

Very disappointing cookie. Tasted much like pie crust. Family very disappointed. Not good use of time or ingredients. Would not make these ever again.

Not bad on taste - I was looking for something rather bland for toddlers anyway. Took FOREVER to cook these though. It was hard to get the dough rolled thin enough. I must have cooked them for at least .5 hr to get the insides cokked then they came out really hard. I don't think I would make these again.
