Ingredients

– 2 cups butter, softened
– 1 cup brown sugar
– 1 cup white sugar
– 1 can pumpkin puree
– 2 eggs, room temperature
– 2 tsp vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
– 4 cups flour
– 2 tbs baking powder
– 2 tbs baking soda
– 1 tsp salt
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1 tsp pumpkin pie or apple pie spice
– 1 cup dark chocolate chips
– 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1
PREP: Preheat oven to 350°F.  Line a baking sheet with a Silpat or parchment paper.  Gather wire rack, mixer with whisk attachment, and large bowl for dry ingredients.
Step 2

WET: Using a stand mixer, beat butter and sugars on medium speed until fluffy and combined.  Add pumpkin puree, vanilla, and one egg at a time.  Beat on low speed until combined.

Step 3
DRY: Sift 4 cups of flour into a large bowl. Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices and whisk together to combine. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients in three batches, mixing on low. Once all ingredients have been added, gently fold in chocolate chips with a rubber scraper.
Step 4
BAKE: Using a cookie scoop for uniformity, bake cookies in batches of 12 for 12 minutes. Allow to cool on wire rack. These cookies are soft, almost like a muffin top, so when packaging and storing, be sure to line layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
