Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and pumpkin pie spice; set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and both sugars until smooth. Add egg yolks and vanilla; mix until combined.
Fold in pumpkin puree until fully incorporated.
In another bowl, whisk flour, remaining pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Sprinkle each cookie with the spiced sugar mixture.
