Even though it’s not quite October yet, pumpkin spice season has officially started in my household! There’s really nothing like those fall flavors of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. I’ve got a lot of pumpkin recipe ideas for this fall that I will hopefully be sharing next month, but these soft baked pumpkin spice snickerdoodles are going to be hard to beat. The pumpkin keeps the cookies moist so the texture is so soft that they taste freshly baked even a few days later. (If they last that long!) You’re going to want to make these as soon as possible!
