Ingredients
Scale
Dough:
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Filling:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Dough Preparation: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a rectangle. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
- Rolling and Filling: On a lightly floured surface, roll out one dough rectangle into a 10×8-inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle evenly with half the cinnamon sugar filling. Starting with the long side, roll the dough up tightly into a log. Repeat with the second half. Wrap each log in plastic wrap and chill for another 30 minutes for cleaner slices.
- Baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice each log into 1/4-inch thick cookies and arrange on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For extra sweetness, drizzle the cooled cookies with a simple powdered sugar glaze.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
