Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted and cooled for at least 10 minutes
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ⅓ cup light brown sugar tightly packed

  • 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Combine butter, sugar, and brown sugar and stir until well-combined. Add pumpkin and stir well.
  2. Stir in egg yolk and vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt until well-combined.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet until ingredients are well-combined.
  5. Cover cookie dough with clear wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 45 minutes.
  6. One dough is nearly finished chilling, preheat oven to 350F (175C) and prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment paper.
  7. Prepare your cinnamon sugar mixture by whisking together ¼ cup sugar and 2 tsp ground cinnamon in a small bowl.
