• Next, in a mixing bowl, beat together the white and brown sugar with the butter until creamy.
• Beat in the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract and egg yolk with the sugar and butter until combined.
• Lastly, scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl and stir in the dry ingredients until just combined.
