Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup Libby’s Pumpkin Puree, room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large egg yolks, room temperature
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 2/3 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup finely chopped chocolate bar or chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C. Line two baking trays with parchment paper and set aside.
- Brown the butter: Brown the butter in a large stainless steel pan until browned and nutty. Cool it in the fridge until liquid but cool.
- Prepare the pumpkin: Spread pumpkin puree on a plate, press out excess liquid, and dry it.
- Mix sugars and eggs: Whisk brown sugar and granulated sugar with egg yolks and vanilla until pale.
- Add dry ingredients: Fold in flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips until just combined.
- Scoop and bake: Scoop cookie dough, roll into balls, place on trays, and bake until edges are golden brown.
- Cool and store: Cool cookies on a rack, then store in an airtight container.
Notes
- The butter should be cool but still liquid for the best texture.
- Dry out the pumpkin puree to avoid excess moisture in the cookies.
- For pools of melted chocolate, press more chocolate on top before baking.
- Store baked cookies in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days.
- Refrigerate or freeze cookie dough balls, bringing them to room temperature before baking.
