Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
  2. In a stainless steel pan, brown the cold butter until it becomes nutty and has brown bits at the bottom. Chill just under one cup of browned butter in the fridge until it reaches around 75°F.
  3. Prepare pumpkin puree by soaking up excess moisture using paper towels until it feels dry.
  4. Combine the cooled browned butter with both sugars for one minute, then mix in egg yolks, vanilla, and dried pumpkin puree until well incorporated.
  5. Fold in flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips gently until just combined.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, form dough balls and place them on prepared trays about 2-3 inches apart.
  7. Bake for about 9-13 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain slightly underbaked.
  8. Let cool completely on wire racks before serving.
