When the leaves start changing colors and the days start getting shorter I love to start baking! Of course as I’ve said before, pumpkin is one of my favorite fall flavors! Today I have a delicious pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies recipe to share with you! Yum!
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix well and set aside.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda and pumpkin spice pudding mix. Mix well and fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Add in the chocolate chips.
- Place the dough in fridge for about 15 minutes to set up.
- Remove from the fridge and use a rounded cookie scoop to drop the dough on your cookies sheets. Bake 9-11 minutes. Cookies will turn a nice golden brown color.

*This recipe makes approximately 2 dozen cookies. Store your pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies in an airtight container for up to 1 week. I guarantee they won’t last that long though! You can also freeze them for up to a couple months if you want to make them ahead for the holidays.
For the softest, most flavorful pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies, blot the pumpkin with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, measure flour with the spoon-and-level method, and chill the dough for about 30 minutes so the cookies hold their shape. Scoop with a small cookie scoop, press a few extra chips on top before baking, and pull them when the edges look set but the centers are still glossy. Let them finish on the sheet for 5 minutes. Store in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days with a slice of sandwich bread to keep them soft. Freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months, or freeze dough balls and bake from frozen, adding 1 to 2 minutes. For gluten free, use a 1:1 baking blend and confirm your chips are GF. For dairy free, swap in plant butter and dairy free chocolate chips.
