This Orange Pumpkin Cookie recipe comes from an old neighbor of mine. The combination of pumpkin and orange makes these cookies absolutely heavenly! I can whip these cookies up in a flash and enjoy them in no time at all! These Orange Pumpkin Cookies are especially a favorite of mine in the fall time, but I can eat them all year long. This is what you get when you bring 2 amazing flavors together in one cookie. You really can’t go wrong here.
