Hey guys! Happy Weekend! Be it the fall or the summers, Chocolate Chips cookies are always a great idea. I bake these Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies almost all year long. And when I am done with the Pumpkin Puree, I use Carrots to make Carrot Chocolate Chip Cookies, since these are the closest that it gets to the taste.

This beautiful time of the year, the colorful leaves, the crisp weather, and everything Pumpkin Spice is surely my favorite season of all. What I love about this Season is these adorable Fall cookies, which are just so delicious and mouthwatering. Also, these are like no other season cookies. There is something so festive about fall cookies right!

For these Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies, I have used the following ingredients:

  • 11/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice

How to make Soft Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

The biggest concern that people seem to have is that Pumpkin Cookies, turn out to be cakey. Well, not this one.

These Pumpkin Cookies are soft, but they are chewy.

The trick to making dense and chewy Pumpkin cookies is to reduce the amount of Moisture which you might use in your cookie dough. It turns out, a Cookie dough which has a lot of Pumpkin Puree, turns out to be too thin and runny and your cookies turn out to be giant, flat, and cakey.

So, to avoid that, reduce the amount of Pumpkin Puree, you're using and also, increase the amount of flour. For the ingredients which I have mentioned, it will yield 18 cookies.

Pro Tips to bake these Soft Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • Do not use Eggs - Eggs will make your cookie dough too thin. Using eggs in this cookie dough will make your cookie dough too thin and your cookies will be flat and cakey. So, you need to not use Eggs for this recipe.
  • Pumpkin Puree - Bloat the Pumpkin Puree using a Paper towel to soak out all the moisture.
  • Chill the cookie dough - Chill the cookie dough for 30 minutes. Wrap it up in a cling wrap and keep in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  • Flatten the cookie dough balls - When you make cookie dough balls and place them for baking, lightly flatten them out using the back of your spoon or scooper so that these retain a good circular shape.
  • Cool the Cookies - After your cookies are baked, cool it down on a wire rack and then enjoy it. You might want to have it fresh from the oven, but they will be super soft and brittle at this point. Give them just 5-10 minutes to sit on the counter to cool down to room temperature and they will harden up to a point, making it chewy and dense.

Notes

Bloating the Pumpkin Puree - This is the most important step of this recipe. Bloating the Pumpkin Puree with a Paper towel will make sure that your cookie isn't cakey. Too much Moisture of the Pumpkin makes cookies soft and cakey.
Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice - If you do not have Pumpkin Pie spice, combine 1/4 teaspoon of each of these spices - Ground Cinnamon, Ground Nutmeg, Ground Ginger, Ground Cloves, to make the perfect Pumpkin Pie spice at home. 
Storing these cookies - You can make the cookie dough ahead and store it covered in the freezer for up to 3 months. Baked cookies will stay frozen in the freezer, covered for up to 3 months. Pop them in the oven and reheat for 1-2 minutes on full power before you have them. For the cookie dough, you can bake the cookies for 2 more minutes.
