# Ingredients:

→ Dough

01 - 115 grams unsalted butter, softened
02 - 300 grams granulated sugar
03 - 1 large egg
04 - 120 grams pumpkin puree
05 - 375 grams all-purpose flour
06 - 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
07 - 2 teaspoons baking soda
08 - 0.25 teaspoon fine salt
09 - 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 0.25 teaspoon ground allspice, 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger

→ Cinnamon Sugar Coating

10 - 25 grams granulated sugar
11 - 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

# Instructions:

01 - Set oven to 175°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter, sugar, egg, and pumpkin puree until evenly blended and creamy.
03 - Add flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin spice (or the specified individual spices). Mix just until a cohesive dough forms.
04 - In a separate small bowl, combine sugar and ground cinnamon for coating.
05 - Portion dough into 2.5 cm balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture to ensure even coating.
06 - Place coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each. Gently flatten each ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until edges set and surfaces start to crack.
08 - Allow baked cookies to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.

# Notes:

01 - Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal dough consistency.
02 - Do not overbake to maintain a soft, tender texture.
