Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup unsalted butter (browned and cooled slightly)
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp cream of tartar
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ tsp salt
For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
- Add pumpkin puree, egg yolk, and vanilla; whisk until fully combined.
- In another bowl, mix flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
- Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until a soft dough forms.
- In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon for coating.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie, roll into a ball, and coat thoroughly in cinnamon sugar.
- Place cookies about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet and bake 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Enjoy warm and chewy!
Notes
- No mixer required; the mixture comes together by whisking the browned butter with sugars.
- No chill time needed; cookies go straight from dough to oven.
- Edges should be set with centers slightly underbaked for a chewy texture.
- Best enjoyed warm while soft and gooey.
