Make these delicious cookies for Halloween or all year around. Switch out the sweet chocolate for semi-sweet for a healthier and more adult version.
What to buy:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used the miniature kind)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
What to do:
- Whisk the melted butter, sugars, pumpkin and vanilla until smooth
- in another bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix together to form a soft dough
- Fold in semi-sweet chocolate and white chips
- Chill dough for 30 minutes or a few hours
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or spray
- Roll the dough into balls, about 2 tablespoons of dough for each
- Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, they’ll look a little underbaked but you want this so they don’t get too dry and cakey
- Cool cookies for 10-15 minutes on cookie sheets before transferring to a wire rack
