Instructions
1
Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees F.
2
In a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer), beat together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until fully combined.
3
Next, add in the vanilla and pumpkin puree and beat until just mixed together.
4
Add in the flour, baking soda, salt and (if desired) pumpkin pie spice. Continue to mix until a dough is formed. You want it to be soft but not so sticky that it sticks to your fingers. If it is too sticking, add a couple tablespoons more flour into the batter and mix.
5
Fold in the chocolate chips.
6
Roll the dough into ~12 balls and place them on a greased or lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes making sure not to over bake at all. The bottom will be only very slightly browned.
7
Let cool for as long as you can manage and then enjoy!!
Notes
1
I suggest using vegan butter over coconut oil in this recipe.
2
You can swap the dark chocolate chips for regular as desired.
3
My best advice for making these gluten free is to use a gluten free 1-1 flour.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Toast Your Spices First 🌟Lightly toast the pumpkin pie spice in a dry pan for 30 seconds before mixing into your dry ingredients to intensify and bloom the warm fall flavors.
- Chill Your Dough 🧊Refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and create thicker, chewier cookies with better texture control.
- Prevent Chocolate Chip Sinking 🍫Toss your dark chocolate chips in a tablespoon of flour before folding them in—this prevents them from sinking to the bottom during baking.
- Pumpkin Puree Moisture Management 🎃Drain excess moisture from canned pumpkin puree using a fine-mesh strainer for 10 minutes to avoid overly dense or cake-like cookies.
- Brown Your Melted Butter 🧈Brown the melted butter over low heat until it develops a nutty aroma, then cool slightly before mixing—this adds exceptional depth and richness to your cookies.
