Pumpkin Sugar Cookies
Description
These cookies start with a creamed mixture of butter, pumpkin puree, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and milk for a moist base. Dry ingredients including flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt are combined separately and then mixed into the wet ingredients to form a balanced dough. The pumpkin provides moisture and a mild earthy flavor, while the pumpkin pie spice adds aromatic warmth.
The dough is portioned onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spaced apart, and optionally sprinkled with a cinnamon-sugar topping before baking at 375°F for 10 to 12 minutes. The result is softly textured cookies with golden edges.
These cookies can be enjoyed as snacks or dessert, providing a gentle pumpkin taste without being too dense or heavy.
