4. While the dough chills, heat the oven to 375.
5. Meanwhile, make the streusel toping. In a food processor combine the rolled oats, both sugars, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. Pulse 2 to 3 times, or enough to just chop the oats. Drizzle in the melted butter, then pulse 1 to 2 times to just mix. set aside.
6. Drop 1-tablespoon balls of the chilled dough on the prepared cookie sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each. Use your fingers to slightly flatten each cookie; they may be sticky.
7. Carefully sprinkle streusel mixture over each cookie. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes. Use a spatula to transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool. Be sure to let the baking sheets cool between batches.
8. Just before serving drizzle each cookie with caramel sauce.
