Brown Butter Pumpkin Snickerdoodles

December 16, 2015 · 4 Comments

Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesWhat are the holidays without cookies, they’re great all year round but there’s something special about getting together with loved ones to bake a batch of an old family recipe or taking the time to make everyone’s favorite cookie just to put a smile on their face. I bake a lot of cookies not only for Christmas, but during the entire season. I will usually assemble boxes to send to best friends in other states, and family in Portugal, but my favorite is participating in The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap. 

I do it firstly to support and raise awareness for Cookies for Cancer, and then to come up with a new cookie recipe and share it with some great bloggers! Last year I made these double cranberry chocolate chip cookies, but this year I wanted to make a simple cookie. A cookie that was easy to make but had something just a bit more special than it’s original version. Snickerdoodles are a classic cookie loved by many, and my twist for this year’s cookie swap recipe was not only using pumpkin puree but including decadent and nutty brown butter. Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesBy adding pumpkin puree it not only infuses the cookies with seasonal flavors, it also makes for a very moist, fluffy and cakey center. The pumpkin is subtle but it’s the spices that bring out the seasonal notes. The delicious brown butter gives these cookies a nutty flavor that balances its sweetness, seriously brown butter makes anything taste just a bit more amazing. 

Rolling snickerdoodles in a spiced sanding sugar lends to its iconic sparkle and shine. It makes for a crispy sugar crust that almost crackles in your mouth with each bite. The cinnamon sugar coating isn’t overpowering like some snickerdoodles can become either. And did I already mention that these brown butter pumpkin snickerdoodles are super soft and beyond moist!Brown Butter Pumpkin Snickerdoodles

Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesBrown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesBefore shipping them off of course I had to share them amongst my personal taste testers, and they had nothing but rave reviews. Even J who’s isn’t a big sweets guy, mentioned these cookies were amazing. His exacts words when describing these cookies, “he envisioned an image of a picturesque cabin in a snowy winter wonderland with a fireplace going, just calling for you to come and cozy up along with these snickerdoodles.” Yes, I know, pretty elaborate, but if my cookies can give someone this comforting feeling, than that’s all I could ask for in my baked goods.

They are definitely a milk dunking kind of cookie, the kind you just want to snuggle with while watching holiday movies.

Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesI carefully packaged a dozen of these brown butter pumpkin snickerdoodles and sent them to three lovely bloggers. So glad that Hannah Lust from Fleur-De-Licious, Liz Martone from Pumpkin and Peanut Butter, and Hetal Vasavada from Pretty Polymath received and enjoyed my cookies. I loved getting to know their blogs, and you should definitely too!

Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesWithin the week of sending my cookies, I slowly began receiving my three dozen cookies from some other great food bloggers. Last year I was matched up with and sent cookies to Shaina from Take a Bite of Boca, but this year she sent me her very chocolatey Chocolate Espresso Snowball Cookies, along with a eye glass cleaning cloth, which I’m always using. Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesThe next batch was sent from Megan Turner of The Emotional Baker. Her vegan Peppermint Dark Chocolate Cookies were so good! I mean I do love the combination of peppermint and chocolate during the holidays. She even sent along a lovely kitchen towel and cookie tins that will definiltey come in handy this season. 

And the last batch of Tropical Cranberry Macaroons came from Renee Joslyn from Freakin’ Flamingo. Totally an unexpected flavor during the holidays, but this tropical fruit loving family definilty enjoyed them!Brown Butter Pumpkin SnickerdoodlesHope these cookies inspire you to possibly be a part of next year’s Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap or experiment with some new holiday cookie recipes. Happy holiday cookie baking!

They say it’s plan a vacation day & I’m always They say it’s plan a vacation day & I’m always ready to make travel plans, especially after this weird snowless gloom of a January. Travel really is the best gift we can give ourselves if we’re lucky enough to & it really is one of my biggest sources of inspiration. 

Have you ever been somewhere whose design was more than just beautiful decor, but intentional details meant to inspire & evoke your every sense. The moment I was welcomed by the kind staff & entered my gorgeous room, I knew @areiasdoseixo was a special place. My September stay was a short one, but my amazing massage, the impeccable design & thoughtful details like the music that changed as the day flowed, delicious cookies I need to recreate & beautiful ocean views … it is a place I now cherish for the memories & inspiration that have left a mark on me. Next time I’m staying longer😉 

Have you been somewhere whose design/concept immensely inspired you? Well go daydream, it’s the end of the month & you deserve this wanderlust moment✨
Thinking of Christie & Mario’s romantic wedding Thinking of Christie & Mario’s romantic wedding in Portugal, because I have travel on my mind & I'm feeling very inspired to explore, connect & make some magic happen in real beautiful places with creatives who inspire me🌿✨
