Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a Silpat liner. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand-held mixer to beat the butter, sugar, pumpkin puree and molasses together.
Add the flour, pumpkin spice, salt, and baking soda. Blend into the wet mixture.
Fold in the butterscotch chips.
Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, scoop the cookie dough into your hand and roll it into a ball. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet and use the back of your hand to gently flatten to cookie dough to about 1/4 inch. Top each flattened cookie with the extra butterscotch chips. (Optional) Next, top each cookie with a sprinkling of the course white sugar. (Optional)
Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for two minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire cooling rack to continue cooling.
Enjoy!
