For the cookies

• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a stand size mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. About 3 minutes.
• Add in the egg yolk and continued to beat on medium speed for about 30 seconds.
• Add the pumpkin and vanilla extract, mix on low just until incorporated
• On the lowest speed, add in the flour, salt, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and the crushed Oreo’s. Mix just until there are no more flour streaks.
• Using a large cookie scooper, scoop out 6 equally sized cookie dough balls. Place them on the prepped baking sheet. I crushed two more oreos and topped them for a garnish, this part is totally optional.
• Bake for 14-16 minutes, and let them completely cool until serving.
