Recipe: Pumpkin Spice Cookies
Ingredients:

- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter

- 1 cup pumpkin puree

Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or greasing lightly. |
| 2 | Blend sugars and butter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, sugar, and softened butter. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to blend until creamy and well combined. |
| 3 | Incorporate wet ingredients: Add the egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract to the sugar and butter mixture. Mix until smooth and thoroughly combined. |
| 4 | Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice until evenly distributed. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick cookie dough forms. |
| 5 | Stir in raisins: Once the dough is formed, gently fold in the raisins until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough. |
| 6 | Drop cookies: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie for spreading. |
| 7 | Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for approximately 23 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges and set in the center. |
| 8 | Cool and enjoy: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, serve and enjoy these irresistible Pumpkin Spice Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage. |
