Top image is of cookies on a white plate. The title of the recipe is below it and another picture of the cookes on a plate and a picture of the ingredients for the recipe on a wood surface is below the title.

I’m not sure what’s better about these amazing little Fall Cookies. How amazing they taste or the amazing aroma that fills your home when you bake them!

Key Ingredients to make the best Spice Pumpkin Latte Cookies

In order to make sure you get the best Pumpkin Spice Latte flavor out of your cookies this is the list of ingredients that are key to include. That being said….if you hate any particular spice you can leave it out. You should make your Pumpkin Cookies with your favorite spices. Leaving any particular spice out should not alter the overall cookie texture.

  • Pumpkin Puree….(Not Pumpkin Pie Filling) Learn the difference here.
  • Egg yolk.…(Not the whole egg) This is what gives your Pumpkin Cookie a chewy/not cakey texture.
  • Half Granulated and Half Brown Sugar…this is what will give your cookies that classic chewy cookie texture with slightly crispy edges.
  • Instant Coffee…That’s what turns these cookies from an ordinary Spiced Pumpkin Cookie into a Spiced Pumpkin Latte Cookie.
  • Pumpkin Pie Spices… This recipe uses a mixture of Ground Ginger, Ground Cloves, Ground Nutmeg and Ground Cinnamon.
  • Flour… We just used All purpose flour however whole wheat or a mixture of both would be great in these cookies.
  • Baking Soda
  • Salt
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Cinnamon Chips… You can also sub in semi sweet, white or your favorite chip flavor.

What’s the trick to making a Pumpkin Cookie that’s Chewy…not Cakey

When you add Pumpkin to a cookie recipe what your doing is adding extra moisture. So if you want your Spiced Pumpkin Cookie to have that classic chewy cookie texture you need to balance that moisture out. The way you achieve that balance is by just adding the egg yolk and not the white part of the egg.

Not that I have anything against Pumpkin cake. In fact I LOVE cake! But I just don’t want my cookie to taste like cake. I want my Pumpkin cookie to taste like a cookie. On the other hand…if you like cakey textured cookies go ahead and add the whole egg.
