I think it's official. I think my favorite cookie in the world is my mom's homemade pumpkin cookies that she ONLY makes in the fall. Yet another reason why I love this season so much! Oh, to wake up and smell those delicious things baking in the oven... yum. The kitchen is so warm and I know they will be the perfect addition to my coffee. I wish I could share these with every human in the world. They are delicious, moist pumpkin drop cookies with this amazing cream cheese and brown sugar frosting... and she somehow always makes them the perfect size for popping in your mouth. And I swear they get even better as the days go on... Normally, I am one of those health conscious/calorie-counting girls, but when these things are in the picture, all bets are off. And I could care less!
I always make sure when they are done to put some (er, a lot) aside in a tupperware container for myself, and my mom always laughs at me when I do that because I look so selfish, but I KNOW, I've learned, that these things literally are gone in a day when my brother, dad and neighbors find out what she made. They only come around once a year! I have to get my fix!
My mom's famous quote for all her delicious homemade desserts definitely comes into play, and I of course have the agree with her when I ask her for every dessert:
Me: "Is this bad for you?" (of course, I know the answer for all her cakes, cookies and pies... but sometimes you just need a little positive reassurance.)
Mom: "Nah."
I love my mom :) No guilt here! All her food is made with love, so that can't be bad, right? ;)
