I'm surprised I have any of these pumpkin chocolate chip cookies left to photograph, because I could NOT stop eating them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perfectly sweet and full of pumpkin flavor and seasonal spices, these cookies are soft and a bit cakey. The balance of chocolate and pumpkin is just right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

tools to make pumpkin chocolate chip cookies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You'll need the standard ingredients for chocolate chip cookies, in addition to pumpkin puree and spices. While you may use pumpkin pie spice, I find individual spices are more flavorful and effective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These cookies use ground cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Be sure to buy a can of pure pumpkin puree <\/a><\/strong>(Libby's is my preferred brand) and NOT a can of pumpkin pie filling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A one-tablespoon cookie scoop <\/a><\/strong>helps portion your dough perfectly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"using<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a large batch of cookies, so you'll need several baking trays<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Line your trays with parchment paper <\/a><\/strong>for best results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"pumpkin<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While our recipes provide both the metric and non-metric amounts, for best results, we recommend a  digital scale<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use an oven thermometer<\/a><\/strong> for accuracy. (This is how I know my oven runs 25 degrees cold.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

more TIPS to make pumpkin chocolate chip cookies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Store cookies at room temperature in a container for up to a week. You may also freeze cookies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bake only ONE TRAY at a time on the center rack of your oven. Stacking trays in the oven leads to unevenly baked cookies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you're reusing baking trays, make sure they are completely cool before adding new cookies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I always line my baking trays with parchment paper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep the dough in the refrigerator in between baking batches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your cookie scoop starts to get sticky, clean in between batches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

OPTIONAL: For curb appeal only! Instead of mixing them all into the dough, reserve \u00bd cup of the chocolate chips and sprinkle on the cookies before baking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
