How to Make the Pumpkin Cookie Dough
Step 1: In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla and then the pumpkin. Then add the cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well. Finally, add the flour and combine until the flour is completely incorporated into the cookie dough.
Baking Instructions
Step 2: We dropped the cookie dough onto the cookie sheet. These cookies rise quite a bit so we pressed down the cookie dough before putting them in the oven.
Step 3: Bake the cookies in an oven preheated to 375 degrees for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Here are the cookies just out of the oven. Golden brown and delicious and chock full of pumpkin flavor.
Frosting the Cookies
Step 4: Make up a batch of our creamy and delicious The Best Pumpkin Spice Buttercream Frosting. You can find the recipe and detailed instructions for making this super pumpkin-y frosting right here.
Step 5: After the cookies have cooled, frost them with The Best Pumpkin Spice Buttercream Frosting.
