5-Ingredient Pumpkin Spice Latte Waffles That Make Sweater Weather That Much Better!

I thought I was over pumpkin, at least for a while. I went a little gourd crazy this year: Pumpkin Panna Cotta, Pom Pom Pumpkins, Pumpkin Soup with Spicy Chorizo. Gah! It's like, put down the can opener girl, right!?

Food Network Magazine Favorite Recipes: Flu-Fighter Cookie!

On Monday I promised that I would share my favorite recipes with you from my time at Food Network Magazine over the past 4+ years, so here we go! Let's start with a cookie.

This pumpkin cookie was published in our first ever (!!!) October issue in 2009. It's called the "flu-fighter" cookie because it's loaded with good-for-you ingredients that promote a health immune system, like yogurt, ginger, lemon and pumpkin.  I am all for cookies-as-medicine, obviously, but I just love these soft, chewy cookies as an everyday treat. They're incredible! Trust me and make a batch this weekend, you'll love 'em just as much as I do (and as much as everyone else does too, apparently, because it has a 5-star rating on foodnetwork.com)!

Click here for the recipe.

Fun fact: I made that cookie! This was my very first time food styling :) Oh, memories.
