How to Make Pumpkin Snickerdoodles
Step 1: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Dry Ingredients until thoroughly combined; set aside.
Step 2: In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars on medium speed until combined. Step 3: On medium low, mix in the egg yolk, followed by the pumpkin and vanilla extract. Step 4: On low, slowly mix in the Dry Ingredients just until combined. Give the dough a stir by hand to scrape up any dough at the bottom of the bowl. Step 5: Cover the dough and chill for at least one hour, upwards of 3 hours is optimal to reduce spreading. Meanwhile, whisk together the ¼ cup granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Step 6: Using a 2-tablespoon cooking scoop, scoop the dough and shape it into a ball, roll the dough ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture to thoroughly coat, then transfer to the baking mat, spacing cookies 2-inches apart. Step 7: Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes (they should look just slightly under-baked; they will cook more once removed from oven). Step 8: Cool on the baking sheet about 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Tag @CarlsbadCravings and Use #CarlsbadCravngs Leave a Review, I Always Love Hearing From You!
