On this episode of our “What’s Cooking?” Chef Dave makes pumpkin spice snickerdoodles! The holidays are a perfect time to do some baking, and these cookies are great for any gathering.

I know, I know…”pumpkin spice is everywhere“. I’ve never been a fan of pumpkin spice, but this cookie makes it work very well.

For those that want to print & try this recipe you can take it from below:
