AND I also have to say that I don’t make them that often…
Also, I only seem to make them in the fall. When cinnamon is seems most appropriate.
After you chill your dough a beat, roll your cookie dough in a glorious mixture of brown sugar and Pumpkin Pie Spice.
makes about 2 dozen large cookies
How to Make
Preheat oven to 375°
In bowl of stand mixer cream butter and both sugars together for 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add in both egg and additional yolk into butter along with vanilla and beat until smooth, scraping the sides as necessary.
Mix in Pumpkin Pie Spice, baking powder and salt until combined.
Reduce speed on mixer to low and mix in flour until dough comes together.
When ready to bake, line baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat oven to 375°
Mix coating ingredients (light brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice) together in a bowl, set aside.
Roll dough into large balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and then roll into the sugar/pumpkin pie spice mixture, coating completely.
Hi! I’m Shelly and I’m an addict. Of the buttercream sort. I started this site a few years ago as a way to justify my sugary, buttery obsession with desserts. It has worked out well for me so far, because as it turns out you guys all love sugary, buttery desserts too! It feels good to know you are not alone, doesn’t it?
I do not make nearly enough snickerdoodles. I think they’re one of my favorites too – especially with pumpkin spice. LOVE! Pinned!
I agree I definitely don’t make snickerdoodle-ish things enough! But oddly enough I actually have snickerdoodle cookie dough chilling in the fridge right now. Wish I had used pumpkin spice!

I don’t think anyone is going to notice the lack of cream of tartar in these puffy cookies… Love the addition of pumpkin pie spice! Pinned:)
Snickerdoodles are Jon David’s favorite too…and I hardly ever make them. It’s the cinnamon/sugar rolling, I think. I’m too darn lazy!
No less than an hour ago I turned to my boyfriend and said, I want a snicker doodle! Now I just might have to make these!
Hi, I have CoT in my cupboard that I do need to get used up. Can I add it to this recipe and if so, how much? Thanks.
You could add a tsp of CoT into the recipe…it will work in addition to the baking powder. Shouldn’t make a huge difference to the recipe
I looooove snickerdoodles but I only make them at Christmas. These are so perfect for fall, though, that I’m definitely making them soon!
I am definitely going to make these. Last fall I had a wonderful pumpkin spice cookie at a wonderful bakery in Amador, CA. I’ve been trying to duplicate it every since. They had golden raisins and walnuts in them. Anyone ever tried adding those ingredients to a snickerdoodle recipe?
Baking powder is cream of tartar and baking soda mixed.
I didn’t know that CoT was baking powder & soda mixed. good to know as I really don’t want to spend money on it because most recipes don’t call for it. So now I can just mix my own. Thanks, Elise
I made these today and they are great .. Only thing I would do differently next time is add just a lil more pumpkin spice
I love this cookies. What a wonderful fall cookie. Thank you so much for your excellent idea. I have to make cookies for a funeral luncheon and was going to make the old standby of choc. chip cookies but seeing these cookies, I changed my mind. I love snickerdoodles but the added ingredients will make them so much better.
