Pumpkin Rose Cookies
Pumpkin Rose Cookies are sandwich cookies with a caramel cream cheese frosting sandwiched in between two pumpkin spice cookies.
Cook Time 14 minutes
Total Time 24 minutes
Servings 12 cookie sandwiches
Ingredients
Pumpkin Cookies
1 box (15.25 ounces) spice cake mix
1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
4 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1/2 cup caramel sauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups confectioners' sugar
Instructions
Pumpkin Cookies
Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a baking sheet by spraying it with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the spice cake mix with the can of pumpkin puree. Mix well.
Pipe out the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. (See below for directions on how to get the rose effect in each cookie.)
Bake for 14 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool as you prepare the cream cheese frosting.
Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting
Beat the cream cheese and butter with a handheld mixer until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
Add the caramel sauce and vanilla. Beat until blended.
Add the confectioners' sugar, one cup at a time, and beat on low until blended. Add more confectioners' sugar if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Increase the mixer speed and beat on medium-high for up to 2 minutes.
Pipe or spread the cream cheese frosting between 2 cookies. Best served within 24 hours.
How to Get the Rose Effect
To get the rose effect on the cookies, placd (1/2 cup at a time) of the pumpkin cookie batter into a pastry bag with an Ateco 846 closed star tip. Then pipe out rosettes onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. These cookies do not spread, so whatever design you pipe out is what it will look like when done baking.
Allow the cookies to cool. Then, pipe out a dollop of frosting onto one cookie, place another cookie on top, set aside and make another.
