In reply to Jade. Hi Jade! I'm so sorry for the confusion! It should only go in with the melted butter. :)

Excited to try this recipe!
while reading though it says to add all 4 tsp pumpkin pie spice to the butter but also mentions whisking in the pumpkin pie spice in with the flour? am I missing something?
should I split the pumpkin spice?
I assume it doesnt matter a whole lot but my OCD says otherwise.

So much less intimidating than I thought.. And so, so good! Ended up making another batch with dark chocolate as requested by mom but I definitely think the white chocolate are better.. I did increase the filling to 8oz cream cheese, 2 tbsp sour cream and 1/2 tsp vanilla to the same 1/4 cup sugar to utilize the entire block.. and still had a few unstuffed cookies in the end.

In reply to Tammy. Hi Tammy! I'm not sure how that cheesecake filling is made or how it would hold up so I can't say for sure how it would turn out.

Hi Sam
Could I just buy the cheesecake filling already premade and put that in the middle of these cookies instead of mixing it using your filling ingredients? Just wondering if that would work. I’m not too good with working with cream cheese.

In reply to Cindy C Thigpen. Hi Cindy! I'm so sorry for the confusion! The pumpkin pie spice only needs to be added with the butter. Thank you for catching that. I will make sure to update the recipe. :)

Hello. I’m making these now but have run into a problem. The cookie recipe calls for 4 tsp of pumpkin pie spice, but in both steps 3 and 7, the recipe calls for the pumpkin pie spice. I’ve already added all 4 tsp to the melted butter…do I add more to the flour mixture? Thanks in advance! These look so delicious and I can’t wait to try them.

I tried to jump to the video and all it did was take me to the recipe. No video came. I closed it out, opened my email again, clicked on Jump to Video and still no video. I tried it several times, but no video ever came up. What’s up with that?

In reply to Katie. Hi Katie! We haven't tried it, but a 1:1 gluten free flour should work just fine here

In reply to Sam. Can you use a gluten free flour to make this recipe? If so, what do you recommend? I was going to try to make one batch regular and one gluten free.

I definitely needed to use less cream cheese per cookie, my first batch was way too filled and there was a lot of dough left over so I made regular pumpkin cookies. It filled about 18 cookies. Other than that they’re great!

In reply to Ness. Hi Ness! That will work just fine. You can follow my instructions on how to freeze cookie dough. Just note that sometimes the cookies won't spread quite as much when frozen, but personally I don't find that to be an issue at all. :)

wow! Thank you for this recipe. These had me looking like a pro chef. So good! I left out the chocolate because I thought that would make them too sweet, but followed everything else exactly. I particularly liked them fresh out the oven after cooling. Do you think if I wanted to assemble the cookie (filling inside the ball of dough, rolled in the sugar cinnamon mix) then stored in the freezer so I could pop a couple at a time in the oven whenever I wanted or had company, it would turn out as good?

In reply to Dana. I'm so happy to hear everything turned out so well, Dana! Thank you so much for letting me know how everything turned out, and for trying my recipe, I really appreciate it!

I doubled the recipe and it was pretty intense trying to mix all of the ingredients. I ended up using my hands to fold everything together. I did not use as much cream cheese inside of each cookie because it seemed intimidating to completely cover that much. They turned out beautifully!!!! My 10 year old daughter spotted the recipe and insisted that we make them for Thanksgiving….I am so glad that we did!! These are the best cookies that I have ever made!

In reply to Eugene. That's an easy fix then. I hope they turn out better next time! :)

In reply to Sam. I think the problem with the too hot butter might be it, thank you! I often cook things from your site and it usually comes out great :)
