Add Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies to Your Fall Baking List!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

yield: 12 SERVINGS

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose white flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

1

In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter and both sugars. Mix well with a spoon or whisk.

2

Add egg, vanilla, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin spice. Set aside.

3

In a separate smaller bowl, mix together flour, salt, and baking soda. Add this to the wet ingredients and stir until dough forms. Stir in chocolate chips.

4

Chill dough in the fridge for about an hour.

5

When ready to bake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

6

Spoon cookies onto the baking sheet. I pressed down a little with the spatula on the second batch before cooking because if cold, they don't spread a lot.

I made 12 larger cookies, but you can also make 24 smaller cookies.

7

Bake in the middle rack for about 10-13 minutes depending on the size of the cookies. (Larger cookies like mine took a little longer to bake.) You want them to be slightly browned on the bottom but slightly undercooked so they will be soft and chewy.

8

Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for a couple minutes to set, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Love homemade cookies?

Try adding pumpkin spice to your chocolate chip cookies for a delicious fall upgrade to this classic cookie! Not only are these treats easy to make, but they also come out with a soft, yet chewy texture, as opposed to a cake-like cookie. These pumpkin cookies are ooey-gooey and not too over the top pumpkin-ish. The pumpkin spice flavor is subtle and super delicious!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Easy to make homemade cookies!

If you enjoy baking chocolate chip cookies, you’ll like this easy process! It’s important to grab a can of pure pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie mix, and also make sure to not skip the step about chilling the dough. This will ensure your cookies come out chewy and not super flat.

Also, make sure to use a parchment paper-covered baking sheet or silicone mat for baking.

  4. Mamamia

    Any way to skip the egg in this one?

    • irene

      Mamamia, vegans make egg replacers by mixing ground flax seeds with equal parts water. Not sure how that would turn out in a cookie, though?

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Ya I bet you could. I have not tried but imagine the pumpkin is a pretty good binder for this dough.

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Thanks so much for sharing! Sounds yummy 😋
