Pumpkin Time

This post is partially inspired by the "Disneyland Pumpkin Food Crawl" post I read a few days ago. However, since I haven't been to Disneyland recently (and since they already did the work for me), I'll be reviewing pumpkin foods found locally in Provo/Orem:

Pumpkin Bagel: Meh. I don't know if it should have been sweeter or had more spices in general, but it was blander than expected. However, I didn't have it with pumpkin shmear, which may have been my downfall.
Also, this bagel should not be confused with the "Pumpkin Walnut Crunch Gourmet Bagel" which I have not tried.

Pumpkin cheesecake and Pumpkin spice cake doughnuts: Yes, please!! I think I liked the spice cake slightly better than the cheesecake, but it's a toss up. They were both sooo good. 

BYU Creamery Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream: No thanks. They nailed the pumpkin pie flavor, and there were chunks of pie crust throughout, but I guess I just don't like pumpkin pie if it's not heated up.
(However, my sister tried it and liked it, so there's a second opinion.) 

Menchie's Harvest Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt: with help, a winner. When I first tried it, the flavor was pretty overwhelming. However, after mixing it with their toasty marshmallow flavor, some carmel topping, and oreo bits, this was definitely an excellent fall treat.
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies: Delicious. We actually made these.
If you don't know the super easy recipe already, here it is: 1 box spice cake mix, 1 can pumpkin puree, and your preference of the amount of chocolate chips. Mix them all up and bake for 14-15 minutes at 350 degrees. 

What are your pumpkin food favorites?

Rhetorically,
Rebekah
