Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookie Bar Recipe

Holiday Comfort Food Dessert

When you want a tasty dessert that is a modern twist on a classic recipe, bake a batch of goodness with my pumpkin snickerdoodle cookie bar recipe.

Cinnamon and pumpkin go together magically, so it makes sense that pumpkin can be combined with snickerdoodles.

The pumpkin puree and some pumpkin spice are mixed right into the cookie bar dough.

Of course, there is also a generous amount of cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top.

These pumpkin cookie bars are great to serve at holiday parties.

Or you can wrap them up to give as a gift to a teacher, co-worker or neighbor.

Snickerdoodles are a fun year round cookie, but when pumpkin is added they are just perfect for Fall and Winter.

Enjoy!
