Pumpkin Spice sugar cookies (cutout) Recipe

Ingredients:
3 cups all purpose flour 390g
1/2 tablespoon baking powder 7.5g
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt 1.5g
1 tablespoon pumpkin spice mix (recipe below) 7.5g
1 cup softened butter 226g
1 cup granulated white sugar 200g
1 large room temperature egg 55-60g
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4g


Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. In a medium or large bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt and pumpkin spice. Whisk to combine. In the bowl of a stand mixer, or a large bowl if using a hand mixer combine butter and sugar. Cream on low for a couple of minutes, until it's smooth and light in both texture and colour. Scrape down the bowl and add in the egg and continue mixing on low until everything is well incorporated and the mixture is airy. Add in the vanilla and mix until combined, again scraping down the bowl. Gradually add in the dry ingredients in 2 additions, mixing on low. Form the dough into 3 equal discs. Lightly flour your work surface, and the top of the dough and roll to 1/4-5/8 inch thickness. Use a cutter to cut your shapes. I used a 3.5 inch pumpkin cutter. Place the cookies onto parchment lined cookie sheets and bake for 6-9 minutes, removing as soon as the bottoms begin to turn a light golden brown. Move to a wire rack to cool completely.
