Pumpkin Spice Cookies
Pumpkin Spice Cookies are a holiday favorite around my house. I get requests for these cookies by the batch, not only from my family but from co-workers at both of our jobs. If you are a Pumpkin everything fan, you can’t pass these up.

Notes
- Because of the amount of pumpkin puree in the recipe, these cookies will turn out moist. If you'd prefer a not so moist cookie you can use 1 cup pumpkin puree instead of 1½ cups.
- Gradually add flour mixture and continue mixing, scraping the sides occasionally to make sure everything is combined.
- Drop a tablespoon of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18mins*. If you use dark lined non-stick cookie sheets bake them for 12mins.
Baking Notes
- If you choose to use the full 1 1/2 cups of pumpkin puree you can let them bake for closer to the full 18mins. ( 15mins for dark lined non-stick)
- Let cool for 5mins then place on wire cooling racks to cool completely

Nutrition
We usually make at least 6 batches starting in September all the way until Christmas, my dad and husband alone get one whole batch all to themselves. And that’s after I’ve had my own batch all to myself.
I am a huge pumpkin spice fan, yes I’m one of those pumpkin spice everything kind of gals. The best part is Starbucks rolls out their Pumpkin Spice Late right around my birthday which is in September and that right there not only is one of the best birthday gifts but it’s the start of my favorite seasons to come, Fall and Winter.
Enjoy!
