We are officially into fall now, and I’ve already shared a bunch of pumpkin recipes on the site this year, Pumpkin Donuts, Small-batch Pumpkin Cupcakes, and a Mini Pumpkin Cake, but I haven’t yet shared any pumpkin recipes with one of my favorite flavor combos, pumpkin and chocolate! So today, I’m fixing that. Let’s all bake some Small-batch Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies!
Biting into one of these cookies is like biting into the perfect chocolate chip cookie all dressed up for fall. They use just enough pumpkin to give them pumpkin flavor with a soft, slightly chewy texture. And since these are pumpkin cookies and it’s pretty much law that pumpkin desserts must use pumpkin spice, they are packed full of fall flavors like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves to go along with the more-than-generous share of chocolate chips mixed in.
Like my Instant Gratification Small-batch Chocolate Chip Cookies, these Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies use melted butter, and the super short chilling time is optional, so you can make them whenever the whim strikes you and be eating them in about 20 minutes. Plus, since this is a small-batch recipe (it makes 5 nicely sized cookies), you have just enough to share without having to worry about loads of leftovers. Not a bad way to say hello to fall, if you ask me.
