📝 Preparation Steps
1
Place melted butter, pumpkin, and both sugars in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. You can also use a hand mixer, if you prefer. Mix until smooth, about ⏱️ 30 seconds. Mix in egg yolk, baking soda, salt, spices, and vanilla. Mix in flour until batter is smooth. It’ll be a soft batter. Chill dough for at least ⏱️ 2 hours.

2
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silpat baking mats.
3
Scoop 2 tablespoon balls of cookie dough onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for ⏱️ 10-13 minutes until they are no longer glossy. (I like to err on the side of under baked for a gooey cookie!) Cool completely before frosting.
4
To make the frosting: cream butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Slowly add in powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix until smooth. Frost cookies and dust with a bit of cinnamon.
