Pumpkin Cookies with Orange Glaze - Recipe from Price Chopper

Pumpkin Cookies

1. Position 2 oven racks to upper and lower position. Preheat oven to 375°. Line 2 rimmed baking pans with parchment paper. In medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In large bowl, with mixer on high speed, beat brown sugar and butter 4 minutes or until light and fluffy, scraping bowl occasionally with rubber spatula. Reduce speed to medium low; add egg and beat until combined. Add pumpkin and orange juice and zest; beat until combined. Reduce speed to low; gradually add flour mixture, beating until just combined.
2. Using 2 small spoons, drop about 1 tablespoon cookie dough 1½ inches apart onto prepared pans. Bake cookies 12 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned and tops spring back when touched, rotating pans between upper and lower racks halfway through baking. Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool completely.

Orange Glaze

1. Prepare while cookies cool. In medium microwave-safe bowl, heat butter in microwave oven 20 seconds or until melted. Add powdered sugar, liqueur, and orange juice and zest; whisk until smooth. Makes about 1 cup glaze. Drizzle glaze over cooled cookies and let stand 30 minutes or until glaze is set.
