Why You’ll Love This Recipe!

Quick and Easy. You can have a batch of these cookies ready to enjoy in 30 minutes! No chilling or rolling involved.

The Perfect Flavor Combo! Pumpkin and chocolate are a match made in heaven and these chocolate chip pumpkin cookies are the perfect way to celebrate fall.

Amazing Texture. I have found that a lot of pumpkins cookies are really cake like.  I prefer my cookie to have the texture of a cookie and like them soft and chewy.  Melting the butter in this recipe helps give you that chewier texture.

Ingredients

  • Butter, room temperature. I use salted butter.
  • Sugar, granulated and brown sugar
  • Pumpkin Puree. This is different than pumpkin pie filling so make sure you are using 100 % pumpkin puree.
  • Egg
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Bread Flour. I love the texture bread flour gives the cookies but you can use regular all purpose flour if needed.
  • Baking Soda
  • Salt
  • Cinnamon
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • Chocolate Chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips.

How to Make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • Melt butter in a small bowl and allow to cool.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, using a paddle attachment, beat together butter and sugars until combined and fluffy. 
  • Add in pumpkin, egg and vanilla and mix to combine.
  • Mix in dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin spice, until just combined. 
  • Add into chocolate chips into mixture and stir until just incorporated.
  • Use a cookie scoop to scoop cookies onto a parchment paper covered baking sheet
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
  • Cool cookies on a wire rack.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add nuts to the pumpkin chocolate chips cookies?

Nuts can definitely be added. Use pecans or walnuts. I’d add in about 1/2 cup of nuts.
