Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree Use canned or homemade puree for the best flavor.
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter Make sure it's soft enough to cream easily with sugars.
  • ½ cup brown sugar Adds moisture and depth of flavor to the cookies.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar Balances the richness of the brown sugar.
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Enhances the overall sweetness and flavor profile.
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour Provides structure to your cookies.
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch Helps achieve that chewy texture we love in cookies.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda Essential for leavening and achieving the right rise.
  • ½ teaspoon salt Enhances all the flavors in your cookies.
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice A blend of spices that complements the pumpkin beautifully.
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips The sweet chocolate adds a perfect contrast to the pumpkin base.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Pumpkin Puree by placing it in a small saucepan over medium heat, cooking for about 10 minutes while stirring frequently.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and both sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the cooled pumpkin puree along with vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice until evenly combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing just until no flour streaks remain visible.
  5. Gently fold in semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
  6. Scoop out approximately 2 tablespoons of dough, roll into balls, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 30 minutes before baking.
