Then, in a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. Once whisked, gradually add the flour mix to the wet ingredients.
Fold in the flour with a rubber spatula until well combined.
Afterward, fold in the chocolate chips and half of the crushed peppermint candy.
On a baking sheet, roll out the dough into small balls and place about 2 inches apart. This batch should yield about a dozen small palm-sized cookies.
After the dough has been rolled out, sprinkle the rest of the peppermint candy on the top of the cookies. Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes for soft and chewy cookies or 12 minutes for more firm cookies.

To begin, in a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Set it aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, using a whisk or hand mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar together until smooth and creamy, for about 1 minute. Add the molasses and vanilla, and beat the mixture again until creamy.
Then, gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Fully combine the flour into the butter before adding more flour. With a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. When all the flour has been added, the dough should be fully formed.
With the dough, divide it into two halves and roll each into a ball. Wrap each ball in plastic wrap. Place in the fridge and chill for at least 3 hours and up to 2 days.
Once the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 350ยฐF and line at least 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Roll out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. When using a rolling pin, the dough should be about 1/8 inch thick.
Cut the dough using cookie cutters (of your preferred shape) and then transfer the cookies onto the baking sheets, leaving a 1/2 inch of space between cookies.
Reroll any excess dough and repeat until all the dough has been used.
Place the trays in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Once baked, transfer the baking sheets to cooling racks.
Once the cookies have cooled, use a mesh strainer or sifter to sprinkle powdered sugar on top of the cookies.

What Is Pumpkin Spice?
Homemade pumpkin pie spice mix is traditionally made with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, although many homemade recipes (including ours, below) include ginger and allspice, too. While many people associate beloved pumpkin pie recipes with Thanksgiving meals, Scientific American reports that pumpkin pie probably wasnโt served during Colonial times: โWhile we believe that American colonists were eating pumpkins simply because it would have been a prolific food source, their ovens would not have been capable of creating modern crusts as we know them.โ Pumpkin spiceโs modern rise to fame began in the 1950s, when McCormick first sold a blend on supermarket shelves. Since then, home cooks and popular brands alike have discovered myriad ways to make the most of these flavors, from cult-favorite lattes to family-secret pumpkin spice cookie recipes.
