Best Pumpkin Seed Shortbread Recipes
PUMPKIN SHORTBREAD COOKIES
This is a spicy, pumpkiny variation of shortbread cookies. The added pumpkin makes them slightly softer than your average shortbread, but they've got a pleasant texture nonetheless. Make these ahead of time--they taste better the next day. Store in an airtight container.

My family prefers this to traditional pumpkin pie, which is just fine with me. It feeds a crowd, so I need to make only one dessert instead of several pies. -Edie DeSpain, Logan, Utah
