Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup soft reduced-calorie margarine
  • 1/2 cup unpacked brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 cup confectioner's sugar for rolling

Instruction

  • Position an oven rack in the center of your oven. Preheat your oven to 375F degrees. Line your baking sheets with silicone liners or parchment for easiest cleanup. Or use ungreased cookie sheets. You'll need at least 2.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy.
  • Stir in the flour, baking soda, salt and pumpkin pie spice.
  • For best results place the cookie dough in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
  • Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and then roll in the confectioners sugar to coat, making 36 cookies.
  • Place the balls of cookie dough on the cookie sheets spaced at least 1 inch apart. Bake, one cookie sheet at a time in the center of the oven, until golden, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool on the cookie sheet for a minute and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Repeat with the remaining cookies.
