Notes

After making pumpkin cookies, you’ll want to keep them fresh and great tasting. Once they’re out of the oven and cooled: Place them in a tightly sealed container, after 5 days if there are any left, freeze them.
Always use whole ingredients when possible. Pure vanilla extract, organic eggs, good quality butter. 
Do not forget to refrigerate the dough, this is crucial for getting the perfect cookie.
Also, a kitchen scale always helps yield a perfect cookie.
