Each week we round up our favorite posts and recipes from our friends at The Kitchn.

This week, the Kitchn bakes pumpkin spice cookies with browned butter frosting and candied pecans, for those who just can't wait to use the pumpkin puree until Thanksgivingtime.

Also on the Kitchn:

• Campfire Dessert! A Cake Baked In an Orange Peel: Take a cake mix, some oil and water, and some oranges, then add campfire and bake! Ta-da! Baked orange cakes.
• Beloved Turkish Breakfast: The Secret's in the Swirl: Halva buns can be found in most Istanbuli pastry shops; a very popular breakfast or snack food.
• Sweet Treat Recipe: Fluffy Vanilla Marshmallows: Marshmallows really aren't that hard to make at home, but they do require planning and patience. And gelatin!
• Cheese Review: Trader Joe's Cinnamon Cheese: Joe calls it "nutty" and "creamy." Indeed. It's most similar to a one- to two-year aged gouda, because it's sweet, but not in an artificial way.
