This recipe great for the people who aren’t big fans of pumpkin pie. The base of this pie is just a large cookie! Now, the recipe calls for a premade mix, but you can make this pumpkin cookie with my homemade recipe if you would like!

Cookie pies are unmatched because they’re practically foolproof! There’s no need to worry about the filling leaking or the cookies spreading too much. They always work out great and they taste even better because of it – and with this one you can make it with or without pie crust!

Variations

  • This pie can be made with or without a pie crust! If you would like a more traditional pie, my amazing All Butter Crust is a perfect recipe to start this pie. You could also use a store-bought crust! If you want more of a giant cookie, go without the crust!
  • This pie recipe is already amazing, but if you want to add a little extra something, I love the idea of mixing in chocolate chips or your choice of chopped nuts!

Expert Tips

  • If you are using a store-bought pie mix, they sometimes come with a glaze. If this is the case, follow the directions for the glaze on the package. If there is no glaze or you have a homemade recipe–check my ingredient list to make your own!
  • For the glaze, the fat content of the milk affects how much you use. Nonfat milk will need less, heavy cream will need more, etc.
  • Top this recipe with whipped cream or ice cream to have an ultimate pie recipe!
  • Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days. Pie can be frozen whole or in slices.

Ingredients
 

  • 1 recipe All butter pie crust (or one from the store) – optional
  • 1 box or pouch Pumpkin Cookie Mix
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips optional
  • 1 cup chopped pecans optional

Glaze (if it doesn't come with your mix)

  • ½ cup (57g) powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-3 tablespoons milk or heavy cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • If using a pie crust: Place crust into a standard size 9” pie plate. Crimp edges as desired, removing excess crust as needed. Chill until cookie dough is ready.
  • If not using a pie crust: Spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Add the cookie mix, butter, and egg into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. (You can also use a hand mixer or just a wooden spoon.) Mix until dough forms and all ingredients are combined. Stir in white chocolate chips and pecans, if using.
  • Press dough into pie crust or into pie plate without crust.
    With crust: Place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until crust is no longer translucent and cookie seems set in the middle.
    Without crust: Bake for 25-35 minutes or until no longer glossy, light golden around the edges and baked through.
  • Glaze: Either make glaze according to package directions or whisk powdered sugar and spice, then add vanilla and 1 tablespoon milk or cream and whisk until desired consistency, adding more milk or cream to get a drizzle. Drizzle glaze over cookie pie.
  • Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days. Pie can be frozen whole or in slices.

Recipe Notes

  • Some of the cookie mixes (i.e. Krusteaz) come with a glaze packet. If yours comes with one, omit glaze ingredients and make glaze as directed on box.
  • Other mixes (i.e. Betty Crocker) do not come with glaze. Use the ingredients and directions to make glaze, if desired.
  • For the glaze, the fat content of the milk affects how much you use. Nonfat milk will need less, heavy cream will need more, etc.
