How to Make Irresistible Spiced Pumpkin Chai Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  3. In another bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Gently mix in pumpkin puree and egg into the butter-sugar mixture until well blended.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Drop tablespoon-sized cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets with space between each.
