Interior decorators say that pumpkin orange has a warm, soothing effect on a room. Logically, pumpkin cookies would do the same. Not only will their rich color woo you, but the deep deliciousness that wafts through the air is a lovely invitation to dig right in. For extra-impact, you’ll speckle the cookie batter with sweet white chocolate chips. Make these warm welcome-home treats for birthdays, Halloween and especially the holidays.
