So I’m sure if you have read any of my previous blog posts, you are well aware of my love for all things Fall. Mainly, because fall is the time of year that I do the most baking. Over the last few weeks, I have created a ton of recipes with apples. Some of those recipes have made it to the blog so feel free to check them out here:
Well, this week I have moved on from recipes with apples to baking with pumpkins. You can call us basic but my family loves all things pumpkin. So I decided to make them some bakery style pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.
This is such a simple recipe. I have all the ingredients in my pantry.
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
To get started you simply need to preheat your oven to 350. Spray your baking sheets with a nonstick spray or grab your silicone baking mat.
Then is a large bowl mix flour, soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat your butter and sugar, then add pumpkin, egg, and vanilla, and mix well. Then beat in flour mixture gradually.
Then gently fold in your chocolate chips. Use a cookie scoop to drop them onto a baking sheet (Honestly, I eyeballed the cookies so they weren’t so uniformed.) Bake 15-18 minutes or until edges are firm.
Allow time to cool slightly before biting into one. Trust me, you don’t want to burn your tongue.
These pumpkin chocolate chip cookies bake up nice and thick to give them that bakery style feel. What are some of your favorite pumpkin recipes? I’d love to try out some new ones this fall. Off to search Pinterest for some fun ones.
