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:

  1. I just subscribed, and I can't pick just one thing I'm excited for! I love baking, holiday or not. During the holidays I will usually make a minimum of 20 different baked goods and divide them between us, family, and neighbors (my out of state aging future father in law and disabled niece usually receive the most 😉 but last year I was 2 months pregnant and having health issues during the whole pregnancy I didn't get much of anything done for last years holidays or any time this year so far. Now that baby is here and I am getting back into the swing of things I can't wait to make a ton of stuff this year to make up for the lack of last year!
