Pumpkin Cookie Tips:
If you have pumpkin pie spice, you can use 2 1/2 tsp of it instead of the individual spices listed in the recipe.
Avoid using canned “pumpkin pie mix” as it contains added sweeteners and spices that aren’t suitable for this recipe.
Use parchment paper or baking mats instead of buttering the baking sheets to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
Keep the finished cookies in a cool place to ensure the frosting doesn’t soften or melt at warm room temperature. Let them rest briefly at room temperature before serving.
Store the cookies in a single layer to prevent sticking. Using a cookie sheet with a lid is a good storage option.
These cookies can also be turned into pumpkin chocolate chip cookies by replacing the frosting with chocolate chips in the batter.
