The Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies are perfect little pillows of pumpkin cookie dough dotted with plenty of chocolate chips and baked to perfection. These are heavenly. You can bake there one of two ways... the recipe as written below will give you a slightly puffy version of these heavenly cookies! Or if you prefer them a little more dense, when you remove them from the oven, use the bottom side of a glass and gently press down. This will make your cookies less puffy and more dense.

And if you need the most perfectly round cookie - here's a little tutorial!

Need even more pumpkin inspiration to get you through these fall months - I have you 10000% covered:

  8. Hi Gaby! I love your recipes and they have always turned out great. Quick question, what is the consistency like in these cookies? I have attempted many recipes for pumpkin cookies and they all turn out more muffin/cake/pancake style than a cookie. All I want is a pumpkin cookie....
    Thanks,
    Meg

    1. Hi Megan - these are a bit more cakey since I use greek yogurt! But there are more of a cookie consistency - rich, chewy, moist and similar to a chocolate chip cookie:
