Step one
In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the Earth Balance and sugar and beat on medium-high until well combined, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add flax egg and 2 teaspoons vanilla, mixing until combined. Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg, mixing until combined. Mix in pumpkin and flour.
-
Step two
Drop by tablespoon-full on cookie sheets and bake 9 to 10 minutes or until top is set. Cool on wire racks.
-
Step three
For the frosting beat together the Earth Balance spread, brown sugar and remaining vanilla until smooth. Add powdered sugar and milk, mixing until light & fluffy – if it’s too dry, add more milk a little at a time to reach desired consistency; or if it’s too thin, add more powdered sugar.
-
Step four
Spread frosting on cookies, sprinkle with cinnamon.
