Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter
  • cup granulated sugar
  • cup light brown sugar
  • cup pumpkin
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat over to 350℉. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Add one egg at a time and mix until creamy. Add pumpkin and vanilla extract and mix well.
  • Mix in pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Slowly mix in flour until well blended. Carefully stir in chocolate chips.
  • Scoop the cookie dough onto the baking sheets using a 2-inch cookie scoop, leaving two inches between each cookie. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies turn a slight golden brown color.
  • Cool completely, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Double or triple the recipe: Making these for a bake sale or party? Feel free to double or even triple the recipe if needed!
  • Dry the pumpkin: Since pumpkin puree holds a lot of moisture, we recommend patting it dry. Spread it over some paper towels to absorb some of the excess moisture before adding it to the dough.
  • Cool the cookies on the baking sheet: Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheets. If you would like to transfer them to a cooling rack, wait a few minutes so they don’t fall apart when you move them.
