Pumpkin Cream Cheese Cookies

Cream together the butter and sugar, then add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Add the flour mixture into the batter until combined. Refrigerate for one hour.

Scoop the pumpkin cookie dough and roll it into round balls.

Roll the cookie dough balls through the pumpkin spice sugar, then place them onto a prepared baking sheet.

Use the bottom of a drinking glass to flatten the pumpkin cookies slightly, then bake. Cool for a few minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese mixture until smooth, then spread one tablespoon onto the tops of each pumpkin cookie.

Heat the flour, then mix it with the streusel ingredients until small crumbles form. Sprinkle onto the tops of the pumpkin cheesecake cookies, and enjoy!
