Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Icing

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 Tbsp milk (more or less)
  • 1 dash cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 °. Spray a cookie sheet with non stick spray.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Beat softened butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl till creamy. Beat in pumpkin, egg, and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients just until moistened.
  • Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto prepared pans. Flatten slightly with a set hand or spoon. Bake at 350° for 13-18 minutes or till set in the middle.
  • Let cookies cool completely, then drizzle icing over the tops. I like to use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped to drizzle my icing, but you can just use a fork or spoon.
  • For icing, whisk all ingredients together until smooth, adding enough milk to get the correct consistency.
