These moist delicious cookies are perfectly spiced and go very well paired with coffee, tea and the Holidays! I made up the recipe after searching for a quick easy cookie to bring to a school Halloween party. The teacher contacted me that day asking for the recipe (-:
- 1 Duncan Hines Yellow Cake Mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1 Tbls oil
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- shallow dish with powdered sugar (optional)
- Pre heat oven to 350
- Put all ingredients in a mixing bowl
- Beat with an electric mixer until combined
- use a small size cookie scoop to drop onto ungreased cookie sheets
- bake for 17-19 min.
- cool on baking sheets for 2 min. before removing
- if desired remove from cooie sheets and drop upside down onto powdered suger twist as you pick up to "dust" the top and then place on racks to cool

Made these today except I used Spice Cake mix. They are delicious- moist and tasty. As an added treat I took a can of DH cream cheese frosting, warmed it in the microwave and added in some cream to thin it. I then drizzled over the cookies. Great recipe.. thank you for posting... great directions too.

Can you use the pumpkin pie filling you get in a can?

Yes absolutely you just might want to reduce the pie spice a bit . but do according to your taste (-: You can also use spice cake mix instead of yellow and that is Yummy too (-:

I have made these cookies for years with the spice cake mix as well as the carmel cake mix and they were both yummy. I use this basic cake mix cookie recipe for tons of cookies, I just use different mixes and add what ever I want. I have even mixed Cocoa Lopez with shredded coconut pressed a little ball into the middle of cookies made with devil's food cake. Also used the same mix with grated lime peel and a touch of lime juice in Uellow cake mix cookies-used the powdered sugar with both of these. Love this recipe!

The Pumpkin Spice Cookies were good but I was wondering how it would taste with the spice cake mix, has anyone tried that yet?

Yes I have tried with the spice cake mix and also with the devils food mix! I followed everything else in the recipe, including still adding the pumpkin pie spice to the spice cake mix. Both were good!

I loved the ones with the cake mix. They stay soft and moist.

Just use the 1 tsp called for -
you make your own pumpkin pie spice.
II you would like another recipe, mix
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon,
1/4 tsp ground ginger,
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground allspice
OR
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground allspice
Store as you would any ground spice

It equals 1 3/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice, about double what you'll need for the recipe.
