- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar

- 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
- Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Chill the Dough: Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Bake the Cookies: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Cool the Cookies: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Prepare the Mascarpone Cream: In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and heavy cream, beating until light and fluffy. Be careful not to overwhip.
- Assemble the Cookies: Dip each cookie in strong brewed coffee. Spread a generous layer of mascarpone cream on top of half of the cookies. Top with the remaining cookies to create a sandwich.
- Dust with Cocoa Powder: Dust the assembled cookies with cocoa powder for a classic tiramisu touch.
- Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the assembled cookies for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
