Ingredients

  • 48 pumpkin gingersnaps recipe below
  • 48 Pumpkin Spice Marshmallows
  • 20 oz. white or milk chocolate bars or a mix of both
  • Caramel sauce recipe below
  • ½ cup toffee pieces

Pumpkin Gingersnaps:

  • ¾ cup butter room temperature
  • cups sugar plus more for dusting cookies
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup pumpkin purée
  • ½ cup molasses
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp baking soda
  • 1 Tbsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground cloves
  • ¼ tsp salt

Caramel Sauce:

  • ½ C granulated sugar
  • 3 T butter cut into pieces
  • ¼ C + 1 T heavy cream
  • ¼ t salt

Instructions

  • Set oven to broil.
  • Place half of pumpkin gingersnap cookies upside-down on one foil-lined baking sheet. Place the other half of cookies upside-down on a second foil-lined baking sheet. Place two marshmallows on top of the cookies on one sheet. Place a small piece of chocolate on top of the other cookies.
  • Place the cookies topped with marshmallows in oven on broil for about 2-3 minutes, until marshmallows are toasted. When only 1 minute remains, place second baking sheet with chocolate topped cookies in the oven to let chocolate get melty.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce over marshmallows and sprinkle toffee bits over.
  • Put marshmallow and chocolate cookies together to create sandwiches.

Pumpkin Gingersnaps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer (or in a large bowl with a hand mixer), cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg, pumpkin purée and molasses and mix until combined.
  • In a separate large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, ground cloves, and salt.
  • Pour flour mixture into wet mixture and mix together until just combined.
  • Put dough in refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
  • Scoop tablespoons of dough, roll in extra sugar, and place on parchment-lined baking sheets about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake at 350° for about 7-10 minutes, until cookies are just starting to brown at edges.
  • Let cool in pan for a 5-10 minutes before moving to rack to cool completely.

Caramel Sauce:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir frequently with a rubber spatula until sugar turns into a smooth amber-color liquid.
  • Stir butter into sugar. The mixture will bubble quite a bit. Stir for about 1 minute, until the butter is completely melted.
  • Stir the cream into the mixture and let it come to a boil.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in salt. Pour the mixture into an airtight container like a mason jar or bowl. Store in fridge until ready to use.
