In a saucepan, melt one stick of unsalted butter over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until golden brown.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and sugars. Mix until smooth for 2 minutes.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and spices. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.

Using a cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving space. Chill for 30 minutes if desired.

Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake for 10–12 minutes until edges set. Cool before transferring to wire racks.

Melt white chocolate and black candy melts. Decorate each cookie with ghost designs using a piping bag.

Serve these festive cookies at gatherings or as gifts. Enjoy the chewy treats!
