How to Make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies are made using a similar process for many other cookies, the difference being that the dough is chilled just before baking in this recipe.
- Combine all dry ingredients together and set aside (per recipe below).
- Mix together the butter, sugars and vanilla until fluffy. Add pumpkin puree and egg.
- Combine the two mixtures and stir in chocolate chips.
- Scoop onto a baking pan and then place in the refrigerator for a few minutes (this stops the cookies from spreading) .
- Bake and enjoy.
