Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Brown the Butter: Melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  2. Prepare Pumpkin Puree: Spread 1 cup of pumpkin puree on a plate and blot it thoroughly to remove excess moisture.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Combine browned butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup brown sugar in a bowl. Add 2 egg yolks and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, mixing until smooth. Stir in pumpkin puree.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon sea salt. Gradually add to wet mixture, folding until combined.
  5. Form Cookies: Using a cookie scoop, portion out dough and roll into balls. Place on parchment-lined trays, spaced 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F and bake for 9-13 minutes until edges are golden and centers are slightly underbaked.
  7. Cool: Let cookies cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
