Before starting, remove 8 tbsp butter from the fridge and set aside in a warm place to soften.Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Add 3 tbsp white sugar and 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix to a shallow dish, then stir to combine. Add flour, baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/2 salt and remaining Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix to a medium bowl, then whisk to combine. Add softened butter, brown sugar and 6 tbsp white sugar to a large bowl, then beat using an electric hand mixer or wooden spoon until combined and a bit fluffy, 2-3 min. Add egg and beat until combined.
Add flour mixture to wet mixture, then stir until combined and no floury streaks remain. Scoop 1 1/2 tbsp sized mounds and roll into smooth balls using the palms of your hands. (NOTE: You should have 14-16 cookies.)Roll each ball in pumpkin spice sugar mixture, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart. (NOTE: Use 2 baking sheets if needed to fit all of the cookies.)
Bake on the top and middle rack of the oven, rotating halfway through, until puffed and lightly golden-brown around the edges, 10-16 min. Meanwhile, in a large pot, combine milk, cocoa powder and remaining sugar.Heat over medium, whisking occasionally, until mixture is smooth, 5-6 min.
Remove snickerdoodles from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 2 min before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. When ready to serve, bring hot chocolate to a simmer over medium-high heat. Divide hot chocolate between mugs. Serve pumpkin spice snickerdoodles alongside.
