Pumpkin No Bake Cookies

Fall is here! At least, I think it is. I know summer isn't technically over yet, but I am enjoying the cooler weather. I call it good breathing weather because it is much more gentle on my lungs than the summer humidity. Along with those cooler temperatures comes the changing leaves, apples, pumpkins, and fall beverages. {I just had my first-ever pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks the other day. It was delicious!}

I also just bought my first can of pumpkin for the season and am hoping to share lots of pumpkin recipes with you. The first is of which is pumpkin no bake cookies. I'm sure most of you have had traditional no bake cookies - chocolate, peanut butter, oats. Delicious! These pumpkin no bakes are also delicious and contain the wonderful flavors of fall. There is no cooking whatsoever included in this recipe. Not even the use of the stove is required like in traditional no bake cookies. These mix up very quickly and then you can just stick them in the fridge to set. They also seem to freeze well, so you can make them ahead and then just pull them out to defrost as you need/want them.

I hope you give these a try. I think you will love them!
