Ingredients

2 ¼ cups white sugar, divided, or as needed
1 ½ cups butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
cooking spray

Directions

Beat 2 cups sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until smooth.
Sift flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt together. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and beat until flour is completely incorporated. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray baking sheets with cooking spray.
Pour remaining 1/4 cup sugar into a shallow bowl. Fill another small bowl with water.
Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Moisten the bottom of a glass with water, then dip it in sugar. Gently flatten cookie dough with the bottom of the sugared glass, rewetting and dipping as necessary.
Bake in the preheated oven until set, 5 to 7 minutes.

Tips

When flattening the cookies, try caramelized sugar instead of white sugar if desired.
