Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt until combined. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Add in pumpkin puree and vanilla and beat everything together, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Slowly add in the flour mixture while mixing on low speed. Continue to mix until just combined.
- Drop cookie dough by the tablespoonful onto your prepared baking sheet, 1-inch apart. I like to use a cookie scoop for this, but a measuring spoon works fine too.
- Place the cookies into the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
Mapel Frosting
- Whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla in a medium mixing bowl until smooth. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag. (see note)
- Once cookies have finished cooling, drizzle maple frosting over each cookie.
- Let the frosting sit for 5 minutes. Store in an air-tight container.
Notes
- If you prefer, you can dip the top of each cooking the frosting instead. Or you can use a spoon or a ziploz bag with a corner cut off to drizzle the frosting over each cookie if you don't have piping bags on hand.
