ingredients
Directions
For chocolate chip pumpkin cookies
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a
medium bowl.
Using a mixer, beat the butter for 2 minutes, or until light and creamy. Add the granulated
and light brown sugars and beat for 2-3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Add the egg, and
mix until evenly combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the vanilla and
pumpkin, and mix until combined.
On low speed, slowly add the flour mixture into the butter mixture until just combined. Mix
in the chocolate chips to evenly distribute.
Scoop cookies, about 1 1/2 tablespoons each, and place 2-inches apart on the prepared
baking sheets. Bake one sheet at a time for 10-12 minutes, or until cookies are lightly
golden around the edges. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
For cream cheese frosting:
Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter for 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice and beat until combined. Spread
the cream cheese frosting over the cooled cookies.
