Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pumpkin Spice Snickerdoodles Cookies.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, blend together the flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
Step 3
Then, introduce the warm spices—cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, and nutmeg—whisking them together until they form a fragrant mixture, which should take about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
In another bowl, cream the butter with both white and brown sugars using a spatula or wooden spoon until the mixture is smooth and creamy, roughly 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in the vanilla extract and egg, ensuring everything is well combined.
Step 6
Gradually fold the flour mixture into the butter mixture, stirring gently until no flour remains visible.
Step 7
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough chill in the refrigerator for about an hour, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 8
While the dough chills, prepare a shallow bowl with a delightful mix of cinnamon and sugar for rolling the cookies.
Step 9
Once the dough is ready, scoop out 2-tablespoon-sized balls and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until they are generously coated.
Step 10
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 3-4 inches of space between each, and gently flatten them.
Step 11
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 12
After baking, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
Step 13
If you wish, sprinkle a touch more cinnamon-sugar on top before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Step 14
For an extra special finish, brush the cooled cookies with a simple glaze made from confectioners' sugar mixed with milk or lemon juice, and add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or pumpkin pie spice for that perfect touch of warmth.
Step 15
Enjoy the delightful aroma and taste of these spiced cookies, perfect for any occasion!.
