Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg (50g)
  • 1/3 cup (80g) pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (5g) baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp (2g) pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium-high speed until the mixture looks pale and fluffy.
  2. Add the egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Mix on medium speed until fully incorporated.
  3. Reduce mixer speed to low. Slowly add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chips by hand with a spatula.
  4. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto parchment-lined sheets and gently press the top of each ball to flatten it into a thick disc.
  5. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes. Remove when the edges are set and the tops look dry.
