Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Beat butter and sugar together for about 2 minutes or until smooth.
  • Scrape down bowl.
  • Add egg, pumpkin, vanilla and spices. Continue beating for 2 additional minutes. Batter may look separated.
  • Scrape down bowl again.
  • Add rest of ingredients to bowl, and mix just until flour is incorporated and all ingredients are combined.
  • Using a 1-½ tablespoon cookie scoop, place dough about 2-inches onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Bake for about 10 minutes.
  • Let cool completely on baking sheet before transferring to plate.

Notes

  • Butter: The butter should be cool enough that if you poke it, it dents a little. It shouldn't be so soft that it is mushy.
  • If you don't have cake flour, you can make a quick homemade substitute with this recipe.
  • Feel free to gently press additional chocolate chips onto the cookies before baking.
  • Nutrition values are estimates.
