Best 4 Unbelievably Easy Pumpkin Spice Cookies Recipes
Calling all pumpkin spice lovers! Fall is in the air, and what better way to celebrate than with a batch of warm, delicious pumpkin spice cookies? These incredibly soft and chewy cookies are filled with the flavors of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, and they're topped with a sweet and creamy maple glaze.
This recipe is incredibly easy to follow, even for beginner bakers, and it yields two dozen perfectly spiced cookies. You'll start by creaming together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then adding in an egg and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in some pumpkin puree until the dough just comes together. Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown.
While the cookies are baking, make the maple glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and maple syrup. Once the cookies have cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over the top. These cookies are perfect for enjoying on their own, or serving with a glass of cold milk.
In addition to the classic pumpkin spice cookies, this article also includes recipes for pumpkin spice cookies with chocolate chips, pumpkin spice cookies with cream cheese frosting, and pumpkin spice cookies with a pecan streusel topping. So whether you prefer your pumpkin spice cookies classic or with a twist, you're sure to find a recipe in this article that you'll love.

In a hurry? Cake mix and canned pumpkin - that's it! Amazingly simple and they taste wonderful -honestly they're great! Moist and chewy inside, slightly crispy outside.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spray cookie sheets lightly with vegetable spray (Pam).
- In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pumpkin with a fork or mixer until well blended; stir in nuts or raisins, if desired.
- Drop by large rounded spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet; they don't flatten out much so however you place them on the sheet is pretty much how they'll look after baking.
- Bake for 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of your cookies.
- Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for up to 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Frost, if desired.
- How many cookies you get depends on how large you make them of course - just increase your baking time if making larger cookies (it's truly difficult to burn these, but they will get crispier & less moist); Mine, made with a medium size cookie scoop, take 13-15 minutes to bake and yield about 3 dozen.

PUMPKIN SPICE SUGAR COOKIES
Steps:
- Place the butter and brown sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in the egg and vanilla. Beat until just combined.
- Whisk together the flour, 1 tablespoon of the pumpkin spice mix, the baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Pour half of the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and beat on low speed until combined. Repeat with the remaining half of the dry ingredients until a thick dough comes together. Chill for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Combine the granulated sugar with the remaining 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice mix in a small bowl.
- Shape the cookie dough using a heaping tablespoon and roll between your palms to form a round ball. Repeat until all the dough is rolled into balls. Place the balls into the spiced sugar and toss until completely coated. Place onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie. Use your palms or the tines of a fork to press the cookies into thick disks.
- Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree provides the best flavor and texture for these cookies. If you don't have fresh pumpkin puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but make sure it's unsweetened.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when they come out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Decorate the cookies with a pumpkin spice glaze: A pumpkin spice glaze is a delicious and easy way to decorate these cookies. Simply whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth. Then, drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies.
Conclusion:
These pumpkin spice cookies are the perfect fall treat. They are soft, chewy, and full of pumpkin flavor. They are also easy to make and can be decorated with a variety of toppings. So, next time you are looking for a delicious and festive cookie, give these pumpkin spice cookies a try!
