Transitioning to Fall and Peanut Butter Pumpkin Spice Cookies

October 23, 2019 by Alison Leave a Comment

call me “basic” but I love boots, leggings, baggy sweaters, and everything pumpkin spice. I also really like tacos, but you get my point here.

Now I’m not quite ready to bust out with the Christmas Fudge yet, but these Peanut Butter Pumpkin Spice Cookies are definitely a great way to welcome the change in seasons.
