Timesaving and Best Tips for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • You can make the cookie dough ahead of time and refrigerate it overnight.
  • If you want flatter cookies, you can gently press the dough with the bottom of a glass or the back of a spoon before baking.
  • Pumpkin pie spice can be subbed for the nutmeg and allspice.
  • They are super easy to make and chances are you have all the ingredients on hand. Before making these, gather all of your ingredients and also be sure to have parchment paper on hand. I find that my cookies bake more evenly on the baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper.
  • Be sure to let cookies cool completely before serving or they will fall apart.
  • I used mini chocolate chips, but you can use regular chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips with this recipe.
  • Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.

Recipe FAQs

Can I use fresh pumpkin puree instead of canned for the cookies?

Yes, but be sure it is well-drained so it doesn't make the dough too wet.

Can I add nuts to the cookie dough?

Yes. You can add ½ cup to ¾ cup of chopped nuts. Good choices are pecans or walnuts.

Can I freeze the cookie dough for later baking?

Yes, you can freeze the cookie dough for up to a few months. Form the dough into individual balls, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze until solid.
Then, transfer the frozen dough balls into a resealable freezer bag. When you're ready to bake, simply place the frozen dough balls on a baking sheet and bake as adding a couple of minutes to the baking time.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
