Pumpkin Cookies with Brown Butter Frosting

more or less,
a sliver of pumpkin pie
topped with a frosting that
makes you sneak back into the kitchen
just to lick the bowl

overall rating: 4.19

ease to make: 1
clean up: 3, only if you don't let the batter or frosting completely dry and paste itself to the bowl like super glue

ok martha, what up? i followed this recipe step by step and you know what? yeah, that's right. the parchment paper didn't work.... as i'm in PEELING my cookies off of the parchment paper and i can see exaclty where they came from. why? because half the cookie is still stuck to it!!! accck!
they were so bad half my cookies went to ezra, who LOVES "pumpkin cookie" and knows them by name. (yes, pathetic). also, you may remember me saying that i hate frosting. i still hate frosting. i may need to invest in a frosting specific knife or something but in most cases putting frosting on is supposed to make cookies look better, not worse.
yes, it was a frustrating afternoon.
