Scale
Cookies
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 egg
- 2 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
Sugar Rolling
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Combine the softened unsalted butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well incorporated and smooth.
- Add the canned pumpkin puree and vanilla, mixing until incorporated.
- Add the pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. Mix until evenly distributed.
- Add the egg and mix until incorporated.
- Add the all-purpose flour and mix until a cohesive cookie dough forms.
- In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice for the sugar rolling mixture.
- Portion the cookie dough into individual pieces and roll each portion in the spiced sugar mixture, coating the outside evenly.
- Arrange the coated cookie portions for baking, leaving enough space between them.
- Bake according to the original recipe’s specified baking temperature and time, since those details were not supplied here. The cookies should be baked through with a soft, tender interior and a visible spiced sugar coating.
Notes
- Use softened butter rather than melted butter for the intended cookie dough consistency.
- Measure the pumpkin puree accurately; the recipe calls for exactly 1/2 cup.
- Use plain canned pumpkin puree, not canned pumpkin pie filling.
- The baking temperature and exact baking time were not included in the supplied recipe, so follow the original source for those details.
