Notes: My Story: My family’s favourite recipe is pumpkin iced cookies. We make these at Thanksgiving and Christmas. My mom started making these cookies the year before I was born. We have made these cookies every year since then. We usually take them over to thanksgiving and Christmas dinners if my aunts and uncles are hosting. I love when me and my mom make these cookies together. My favourite part is when I mix the wet and dry ingredients together. There is a pumpkin and a cinnamon smell when I mix. After it is all mixed, we add the cookies to the cookie sheet to bake. When they are baking the house starts to smell like delicious pumpkin iced cookies. My least favourite part is waiting for the cookies to cool down so I can eat them!!! When I finally eat them, they taste warm, sweet, and soft. Baking these pumpkin iced cookies with my mum is one of my favourite and yummiest holiday tradition.
