These delicious Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies are a must-make treat for fall!
Made with real pumpkin and just the right amount of pumpkin spice, these cookies are always a welcomed fall dessert. They’re perfect for Halloween treats, too!
You can use store-bought pumpkin pie spice or use my easy recipe for homemade pumpkin pie spice – You probably already have the spices needed to make it at home!
What Is the Texture of These Cookies?
These cookies are soft and fluffy with some chewiness around the edges. The pumpkin puree is what gives these cookies a soft texture… and be sure to use canned pure pumpkin puree and NOT pumpkin pie mix.
Enjoy!
