20 mins prepServes 16
Soft, pillowy pumpkin spice cookies topped with the dreamiest cream cheese frosting. They’re perfectly fluffy, warmly spiced, and basically everything you want in a cozy fall treat.
Preheat oven to 355°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together the melted butter and sugar, then mix in the egg yolk, pumpkin purée, and vanilla. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mixing until just combined.
Cover and chill the dough for 1 hour. Scoop onto your prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–13 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Let cool completely.
For the frosting, whip the softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Frost each cookie, finish with a dusting of cinnamon, and enjoy the coziest little bite of fall.
