Рецепт Pumpkin Spice Cookies
Pumpkin Spice Cookies
I made these cookies a while ago, but didn't get around to posting them at them time. This post has been sitting as a draft along with several others just waiting for me to finish, add photos, etc. Anyway, I finally got around to finishing it...
except now I can't seem to find all the photos that go with the post. Sometimes, I can be so disorganized. :( This was the only photo I could find. However, I decided any photo--even an unfrosted cookie was better than no photos at all. The cookies are delicious. And I hope my disorganization will not stop you from trying this recipe.
