 Low Sugar Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Sandwich Cookie Recipe

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

 

Make Your Cookie Dough:

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the egg, Purecane™ Brown Sweetener , Purecane™ zero-calorie Baking Sweetener and olive oil until creamy (about 1-2 minutes). 
  2. In the meantime, whisk the flour, pumpkin pie seasoning, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together until well-combined.
  3. On low speed, add the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until the bowl of the stand mixer. Mix for 1 minutes, then gradually sift in the flour mixture to form the cookie dough. 
  4. In a small bowl, mix the remaining baking sweetener and cinnamon together for the coating. 
  5. Use a large cookie scooper or 2 tablespoons dough per cookie. Roll each cookie dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place on the prepared baking pan.

 

Bake Your Cookies:

  1. Bake for 9-14 minutes, or until set and slightly crackly on top. (It is better to underbake rather than overbake these cookies, so keep a close eye around 8 minutes.)
  2. Let cool on the baking pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a baking pan to cool completely. 

 

Prepare Your Frosting:

  1. To make the frosting, simply beat the butter until creamy on medium speed (about 1-2 minutes). 
  2. Add the Purecane™ Confectioners Sweetener and continue to beat with the handle attachment for 10-20 minutes. The filling should be light and fluffy. Fold in the vanilla. 
  3. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag to make the cookie sandwiches. 
  4. Serve and enjoy!
