Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup lightly packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup canned pumpkin not the entire can, not pumpkin pie filling
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon each nutmeg and ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 and 1/2 cups white all-purpose flour

Rolling the cookies

  • 4 tablespoons white sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Frosting:

  • 6 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons butter unsalted, at room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons canned pumpkin
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 2-3 cups powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl beat together the room temperature butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until creamy.
  • Beat in the vanilla, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice and salt.
  • In another bowl toss together the baking soda, cream of tartar, and flour.
  • Add wet and dry and mix until just combined.
  • Roll out balls of dough and then roll in a bowl that has the white sugar + ground cinnamon.

  • Meanwhile, prepare the frosting. Beat the ROOM TEMPERATURE cream cheese and butter until creamy. Add in the pumpkin and vanilla extract.
  • Beat in the cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice and then add in the powdered sugar beating in between additions.
  • Add the powdered sugar until the frosting is to your desired thickness.
