Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Mix dry ingredients: Stir together dry ingredients (flours, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda and sea salt) in a mixing bowl.
  • Add wet ingredients: Mix together wet ingredients (eggs, pumpkin, sugar and vanilla) in a separate mixing bowl.
  • Combine: Combine wet and dry ingredients. The dough will seem really wet for a cookie dough. This is ideal!
  • Add chocolate chips: Stir in 1/3 cup chocolate chips.
  • Scoop: Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop and place cookies on prepared cookie sheet. Press cookie dough down into a cookie shape with a spoon or your fingers. Cookies won’t spread very much so you can space them about 1 inch apart.
