Preheat oven to 350
Cream together:
1/2 c. white sugar
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. butter, softened
Then add:
1 c. pumpkin
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
Sift together:
2 1/4 c. flour
1 c. quick oats
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/4 tsp salt
Add dry ingredients to wet mixture then stir in the 1 c. milk chocolate chips.
Bake cookies at 350 degrees for 12 minutes. Allow to cool then frost.
Icing:
In saucepan, heat 3 Tb butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar over medium to med-high heat until bubbling and thick. (Watch it closely so it doesn't burn) Cool 10 minutes. Stir in 1/4 – 1/2 cup whipping cream. (I used 1/2 c.) Add 2 cups of powdered sugar and beat until smooth.
Notes: You can use milk in the icing if you don’t have whipping cream. Just start with ¼ cup and add till it is the consistency you like. I like whipping cream because it makes a thicker frosting. Also, half way through frosting the cookies, I added more whipping cream (about 2 T.) because it started to get too thick.
