How to Make Cozy Pumpkin Oatmeal Cream Pies

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.
  4. Shape the Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Prepare the Cream Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and creamy. Adjust the milk to achieve your desired consistency.
  7. Assemble the Cream Pies: Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread a generous amount of cream filling on the flat side of one cookie and top it with another cookie, creating a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Your Cozy Pumpkin Oatmeal Cream Pies are ready to be enjoyed!

Tips

  • Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
  • Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on the cookies to ensure they remain soft and chewy.

Substitutions and Variations

  • Different Flavors: You can add chocolate chips or nuts to the cookie dough for extra flavor and texture.
