  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. To make the cookies, beat together the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla until well combined.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt.
  5. Using a small cookie scoop, drop scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, about 1-inch apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until springy to the touch. Cool completely.
