Print Recipe

A cozy treat blending savory pumpkin, sweet chocolate, and nutty brown butter for a perfect autumn dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Brown the butter: Start by melting the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and aromatic. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  2. Meet the sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown and granulated sugars with the cooled brown butter. Stir until creamy.
  3. Add the pumpkin: Mix in the pumpkin puree, egg, and egg yolk until fully incorporated.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together.
  5. Bring it all together: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until incorporated.
  6. Fold in the chocolate: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly dispersed.
  7. Chill the dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven: While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  9. Scoop and bake: Drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  10. Cool and enjoy: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
