Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n Cookies:<\/strong> How to:<\/strong><\/p>\n In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter and confectioners\u2019 sugar until smooth, about 2 minutes. Beat in vanilla until combined. Add flour, pumpkin pie spice, and salt and beat on medium speed until combined. If dough is still crumbly, press together with your hands into a cohesive dough. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.<\/p>\n On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1\/3″ thick. Place an 8″ cake pan on top. Using a paring knife, cut around the circumference.<\/p>\n Cut circle into 8 even slices (like cutting a pie). Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a circular formation, spacing 1\/4″ apart. Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n Preheat oven to 325\u00b0. Bake cookies until lightly browned on the bottom, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool.<\/p>\n Make Ahead: Cookies can be made 2 days ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.<\/p>\n Decorating<\/strong><\/p>\n In a medium bowl, mix confectioners\u2019 sugar, milk, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Add orange and brown food coloring, one drop at a time, and stir to combine, adding more food coloring as needed, until color resembles pumpkin pie filling.<\/p>\n Set a wire rack in a baking sheet. Dip top of each cookie into glaze until coated. Hold over bowl to allow excess to drip off, then turn upright and set on prepared rack.<\/p>\n Place 1 meringue cookie in the center of each slice. Let icing set, about 30 minutes.<\/p>\n In a small bowl, add yellow and brown food coloring to icing, one drop at a time and adding more food coloring as needed, until color resembles pie crust. Transfer frosting to piping bag fitted with medium round tip.<\/p>\n On the wider end of each cookie, pipe frosting in a spiral pattern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ingredients Cookies: 1\/2\u00a0c.\u00a0(1 stick) unsalted butter, softened 1\/2\u00a0c.\u00a0(57 g.) confectioners’ sugar, divided 1\/2\u00a0tsp.\u00a0pure vanilla extract 1\u00a01\/4\u00a0c.\u00a0(150 g.) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 1\u00a0tsp.\u00a0pumpkin pie … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2434,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2433","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-food"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2433","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2433"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2433\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2435,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2433\/revisions\/2435"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tipsforahealthylife.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
