Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer.
  • Beat in the pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of cinnamon for the coating.
  • Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
  • Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
