Preparation Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
• In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until combined.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
• Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
