Indulge in the perfect fall treat with these incredibly gooey and flavorful pumpkin white chocolate chip cookies. Packed with warm spices and creamy white chocolate, they’re a must-bake for the season.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree until evenly incorporated into the dough. The dough will be soft.
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between cookies.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden brown, but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For chewier cookies, slightly underbake them.
- Ensure your pumpkin puree is well-drained if it seems very wet.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the cookies before baking for an extra flavor boost.
