Nope not a baker but pumpkin is my favorite and these are super simple. 
These are a premade crust in the dairy case and easy filling mixture,
Not complicated using a  4 inch round large cookie cutter and a fork to seal the edges!

Fill rounds fold over and crimp with a fork not pretty but they taste great!

1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
1/4 cup ground pecans
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon each nutmeg, ginger
1 teaspoon vanilla
dash salt

Topping:
 Cinnamon and Sugar
more heavy cream

Roll dough cut into 4 inch rounds.  Mix the puree with cream, nuts, vanilla, salt and spices.
Place 1 teaspoon of mixture on dough fold over like a half moon. Crimp with fork on the edges.  Brush with cream and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.  Bake on heated oven of 375 degrees for 30 minutes or till brown.

One of my favorite cut out cookies and those soft loft cookies you find in almost every supermarket decorated for whatever holiday theme is going on. You can make Christmas, Halloween, Valentines, anything you want. These are just a great dough so versatile to work with.
