These viral pumpkin snickerdoodle cookies are soft, warmly spiced, and coated in cinnamon sugar for that classic snickerdoodle finish. Made with real pumpkin, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and melted butter, they’re an easy no-mixer fall cookie that's perfect for pumpkin spice season.

## Ingredients (serves 6)

- ½ cup butter, melted
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup sugar
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 and 1/2 cups flour
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin spice
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt

## Steps

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, lemon juice, and vanilla until smooth.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until a soft dough forms.
4. Cover and refrigerate the cookie dough, or until firm enough to scoop and roll.
5. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together in a small bowl.
7. Scoop the chilled dough into balls and roll each one generously in the cinnamon sugar.
8. Arrange the cookies about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
9. Bake until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.

## Good to know

### Swaps

No pumpkin spice? Mix cinnamon with a pinch each of ginger, nutmeg, and cloves to equal the amount needed.

### Making it ahead

The dough can be made up to a day ahead and kept covered in the fridge; scoop, roll in cinnamon sugar and bake when ready.
