How to cook deliciously - Pumpkin Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting (The World's Best!)

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two baking sheets.

2. Stage

Make cookies: Whisk flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg, and ginger together in a bowl.

3. Stage

Beat butter, both sugars, egg, and vanilla with an electric mixer in a separate large bowl until smooth. Beat in pumpkin puree. Gradually stir dry ingredients into pumpkin mixture until combined; batter will be moist.

4. Stage

Drop teaspoonfuls of batter about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes, switching racks halfway through.

6. Stage

Remove from the oven and let cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and cool completely, about 25 minutes.

7. Stage

While the cookies are cooling, make frosting: Beat cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in a bowl with an electric mixer until soft and creamy. Beat in powdered sugar, about 1/2 cup at a time, until frosting is smooth and spreadable.

8. Stage

Spread frosting over cooled cookies.
