-½ teaspoon salt
-1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
-1 eggs
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Cover a large cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 1 minute. Add sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice and beat until well combined.

Add one egg and the vanilla then beat well, until yellow streaks are gone. Add the pumpkin pure and beat again until it's incorporated. Finally, add the flour and beat on medium speed until completely incorporated. The dough will be wet, this is what you want!

Use a heaping tablespoon or medium sized cookie scoop to drop the cookie dough balls a few inches apart on prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until tops are set and no longer look wet. Allow to cool on cookie sheet for a few minutes then transfer to wire rack to cool completely before frosting.

Frosting:

Beat together the softened butter and cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth and all of the lumps are gone.

Sift in the powdered sugar then add the vanilla. Beat until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Once cookies are cool, frost with cream cheese frosting.
