I love Autumn and Halloween, this is no secret to anyone that knows me. Luckily my boyfriend also loves Autumn! Most importantly, we both love Autumn food. If not for his love of pumpkin flavored things, I may never have received this recipe!
Instead of a birthday cake last year, his Momma sent me this recipe, and the non-perishable ingredients, to bake for him! Cody mentioned to her that I have been wanting to blog about this recipe, and she so very kindly gave me her blessing to share! (Lucky you!)

4 tablespoons softened butter
1 cup confectioners sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

My boyfriends Mom also likes to sprinkle crushed walnuts inside on top of the filling!
I hope y'all enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
