Description

Delightful cookies combining pumpkin spice and rich chocolate, perfect for fall or anytime cravings strike.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup Libby’s Pumpkin Puree (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large egg yolks (room temperature)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 2/3 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 cup finely chopped chocolate bar or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line two baking trays with parchment paper.
  2. Brown the butter in a large stainless steel pan until nutty and golden, then cool it in the fridge for 50-60 minutes.
  3. Press the pumpkin puree to remove excess moisture until it measures about 1/3 cup.
  4. Whisk together the cooled brown butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 1 minute until combined.
  5. Add egg yolks, vanilla, and pumpkin puree, mixing until smooth.
  6. Fold in flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips until just incorporated.
  7. Scoop dough into balls using a 3 tbsp cookie scoop, placing them on trays spaced 2-3 inches apart.
  8. Bake one tray at a time for 9-13 minutes until edges are golden.
  9. Use a large round cookie cutter to shape the cookies while warm, then cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

For added flavor, consider sprinkling a bit of sea salt on top before baking. Store cookies in an airtight container for 2-3 days or freeze dough for longer storage.
