Pumpkin Oatmeal Candy Bar Cookies

Here’s a recipe for Pumpkin Oatmeal Candy Bar Cookies. These are the best pumpkin cookies with a melted chocolate bar on top!

These cookies are a softer, pumpkin-flavored sort of oatmeal cookie, topped with a chocolate bar while still warm to melt and act as immediate frosting. It’s a great combination. And, thinking ahead, this is a good way to use up leftover Halloween candy (should you have any!)

• ¾ cup whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
