Instructions
Preparation Steps
Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, spices and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
Beat together butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in pumpkin puree until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The dough will be sticky.
Scoop 2 tablespoon portions of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm up.
Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper.
Form cookies and place onto baking sheets. Bake for 9-11 minutes until just done.
Allow cookies to cool for 3-4 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Make the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon milk until smooth. Add more milk if needed.
Drizzle glaze over cooled cookies and let dry.
Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
