ingredients

Cookies
2 ¹⁄₂ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground cloves
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
¹⁄₂ cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
¹⁄₂ cup light brown sugar
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¹⁄₄ cup dried cranberries (optional)
Glaze
2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground cinnamon

directions

Preheat oven to 350°F Line a baking sheet (or two) with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt.
In a mixer bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar using the paddle attachment. Beat in the pumpkin, egg, and vanilla to butter mixture until thoroughly combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Fold in the cranberries, if using.
Drop cookies on baking sheet using a 2TBS cookie scoop. Bake for 12-15 minutes in a preheated oven, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool cookies completely on a rack.
For the glaze, combine the confectioners’ sugar, milk, melted butter, vanilla, and cinnamon. (Add milk to thin the glaze, if needed.) Once cookies have cooled, dip the cookies top side down in the glaze, then set on a rack to dry.
