Cookies with ground pumpkin spice

Pumpkin season is upon us, and what better way to celebrate than with some delicious pumpkin spice cookies? These chewy pumpkin cookies are the perfect cookie form of your favourite Autumn flavour. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a great recipe that will satisfy your sweet tooth.

To make these pumpkin spice cookies, start by combining the dry ingredients in a large bowl. This includes the pumpkin pie spice, caster sugar or brown sugar for a more chewy biscuit, and flour.

In a separate bowl, mix together the wet ingredients, which include the melted butter or softened butter, (cream the butter first if it’s not soft enough in the mixer with a paddle attachment) vanilla extract, and egg. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.

Using a stand mixer or mixing by hand, form the dough into one big cookie dough ball and freeze for 10 minutes, then roll out and cut out using a cookie cutter.

Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-15 minutes. The baking time may vary, so keep an eye on the cookies to ensure they don’t overcook.

Once the cookies are done baking, let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack then store in an airtight container. You can also sprinkle powdered sugar on top of the cookies for an added touch of sweetness.

These chewy pumpkin spice cookies are a great alternative to pumpkin spice sugar cookies or pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies.

They have a chewy crumbly texture and a perfect balance of pumpkin spice flavour. This pumpkin spice cookie recipe is sure to become a favourite during the fall season.

Happy baking!
