  • Press a sugar cookie into each muffin hole and press up the sides of the tin just a little bit.

  • Bake cookies for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and reshape each cookie. Carefully (muffin tin will be hot), using the end of a wooden spoon, reshape the cookie into a “pie crust” shape. I also like to carefully wipe the rims clean with a paper towel for a cleaner version of the final cookie.

  • Spoon about 1 tbs of filling into each partially baked cookie, then return to oven and continue baking for another 10 minutes, or until pumpkin filling is set.

  • Allow cookies to cool to room temperature, then chill for 15-20 minutes in the refrigerator BEFORE popping out of the muffin tin. This ensures the cookies is set up completely. Use a knife to loosen the cookies.

Notes

Tips and Tricks
  • Storing: This can be a little tricky since you don’t want to stack these and chance messing up the pie part of the cookie. I recommend laying cookies in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet (or two!), covering with plastic wrap, and refrigerating until ready to eat. Or placing in a single layer in plastic Tupperware .
  • How long will they last?: These cookies will last 1-2 days.
  • Make Ahead:  These cookies can get chewy/soggy if made ahead to far in advance. I recommend making the day of or the day before eating.
