These cookies were so easy to make. And with the oats and pumpkin, they are good for you. They were a big hit at Christmas this year.

Little pumpkin flavor

This is a very easy, good cookie but it has very little "pumpkin" flavor. The second batch I made I added about 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice and it made all the difference in the world.
