Best Pumpkin Ravioli Cookies Recipes

PUMPKIN RAVIOLI COOKIES

Steps:

• Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the middle. Stir the wine and olive oil in a small bowl and pour into the well. Stir together with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out onto a clean surface and knead until smooth, 2 minutes. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest, 1 hour.
• Cut the dough into quarters; shape each piece into a flat rectangle. Working with one piece at a time (wrap the rest in plastic so it doesn't dry out), roll out the dough with a pasta machine, dusting the dough with flour as necessary, into a 22-inch-long sheet (about 6 inches wide and 1?16 inch thick).
• Lay out the sheet of dough; spoon 10 mounds of pumpkin butter (about 1 teaspoon each) along the sheet, 1/4 inch from the top edge, spacing them 1 inch apart. Fold the bottom half of the sheet up to meet the top edge and press to seal around each mound of filling, starting at the folded side so there isn't any air trapped inside. Cut into 1 3/4-inch squares using a fluted cutter or knife; press the edges again to seal. Transfer the ravioli to a baking sheet lined with a kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining dough and pumpkin butter.
• Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large heavy pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 360 degrees F. Fry the ravioli in batches, turning once, until golden, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Let cool 5 minutes.
• Mix the confectioners' sugar and pie spice in a small bowl. Use a small sieve to dust the spiced sugar on the ravioli. Serve warm or at room temperature.

PUMPKIN-FILLED RAVIOLI USING AMARETTO COOKIES

Steps:

• For pasta: Combine flours and 1/2 teaspoon salt in processor. Add 4 eggs, 2 tablespoons olive oil and water and blend until dough comes together, about 20 seconds. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 3 minutes. Wrap in plastic. Let stand 15 minutes.
• For filling: Blend next 7 ingredients in processor. Set mixture aside.
• To assemble: Cut dough into 6 pieces. Flatten 1 piece of dough (keep remainder covered to prevent drying), then fold into thirds. Turn pasta machine to widest setting and run dough through. Repeat until dough is smooth and velvety, folding before each run and dusting with flour if sticky. Adjust pasta machine to next narrower setting. Run dough through without folding. Repeat, narrowing rollers after each run until pasta is about 1/16 inch thick, dusting with flour if sticky. Repeat with another piece of dough. Lay 1 dough sheet on lightly floured surface. Mound level teaspoons of filling at 2-inch intervals, leaving 1/2-inch border along edges. Brush dough between filling and along edges with water. Top with second sheet, pressing around filling to seal. Trim around filling using pastry cutter to create ravioli. Arrange ravioli on lightly floured waxed paper. Repeat with remaining dough. Let ravioli dry until leathery around edges.
• (Can be prepared 1 day ahead and refrigerated.).
• Stir 2 tablespoons olive oil into large pot of boiling salted water. Add ravioli (in batches if necessary) and cook until just tender but firm to bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well.
• Transfer to bowl. Add butter and toss well. Divide among 8 plates. Sprinkle each with freshly grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Top with freshly ground pepper.
