These Chewy Pumpkin Cookies are perfect for fall. They have warm, cozy spices and real pumpkin in the cookie dough. I topped my pumpkin spice cookies with cinnamon sugar and loaded them with white chocolate and pecans!

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk the melted butter and brown sugar until well blended. Add in egg yolk, vanilla extract, and pumpkin puree until combined.
  3. To the mixing bowl, add flour, baking soda, baking powder, kosher salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, mix just until combined. Fold in pecans and white chocolate chips.
  4. In a small bowl, stir together the granulated sugar with cinnamon for the topping. Set it aside.
  5. Using a 2 Tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough and drop it into the cinnamon sugar mixture. Coat just the top of the ball and place it on the cookie sheet, about 2-inches apart.
  6. Bake cookies for 11-13 minutes, until light browned around the edges. Remove and cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

  • Using just an egg yolk creates a chewier cookie. Adding the whole egg will make a fluffier more cake-like cookie.
  • Storage- cookies will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze- Either freeze cookie dough or freeze cooled, baked cookies in a ziploc freezer bag for up to 3 months.
