python3 -m pipx ensurepath

Restart your terminal

Install cookiecutter:

pipx install cookiecutter

There is alternate installation instructions provided by the cookiecutter docs, https://cookiecutter.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html, however this results in pulling cookiecutter dependencies into the system or user python environment.
