How to Make Pumpkin Cookies With Brown Butter Glaze
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk together flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking soda, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in egg, milk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Slightly flatten cookies with a fork if desired.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown. Check for doneness at 10 minutes.
- Remove cookies from oven and let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies are cooling, prepare the glaze:
- In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until butter turns a light golden brown and has a nutty aroma (about 3-5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and immediately pour brown butter into a medium bowl.
- Gradually add powdered sugar to the brown butter, whisking until smooth.
- Stir in milk and vanilla extract until glaze reaches desired consistency. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to thin.
- Once cookies are completely cool, dip the top of each cookie into the glaze or drizzle glaze over the top.
- Return cookies to the wire rack to allow glaze to set.
