Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies

October 14, 2013 by Roxana 24 Comments

Chocolate chip pumpkin cookies – moist, cake-like cookies, packed with pumpkin sweetness and full of chocolate-chips. A delicious fall inspired treat.

I made these cookies for the first time Thursday evening and again Saturday.

The first time I made them they were gone before I had a chance to take some pictures. The second time I made them smaller, using a measuring spoon and not an ice-cream scoop to make sure I still have some leftover for the photo-shoot.

These are not your chewy chocolate-chip cookies. Nor they are crispy on the edges. Nor do they melt in your mouth like these chocolate chip cookies.

These chocolate-chip pumpkin cookies are muffin top cookies. They are moist, cake-like cookies, packed with pumpkin sweetness and full of chocolate-chips.

My picky family doesn’t cake anymore for muffins but they do love cookies and these chocolate chip muffin top pumpkin cookies are great at breakfast, in your lunch box or as an afternoon treat.

If you don’t care much for the cake-like texture, you can still make these cookies (you really should) and skip the refrigerator time. I placed the cookie dough balls in the fridge to make sure they don’t spread much during baking, but you can bake them as soon as you make the dough if you prefer a chewy cookie.

You can also sprinkle some raw sugar on top for a crunchy bite.

    Roxanna, thank you for creating the Chocolate party and for making me step out of my comfort zone and try pumpkin. I'm in love with it. Can't wait to give these a try, cookies are always perfect to grab one or two as I'm walking through the kitchen and since there's pumpkin in them, I can say they're just a bit healthy!

    Roxana....those cookies look phenomenal! Funny, I've never had a pumpkin cookie before, but I absolutely plan on making these for my son when he comes home for Thanksgiving break! Also....I LOVE LOVE LOVE that scale! Was it something in your family? I'm always scouting flea markets and thrift shops for vintage bakeware! Wonderful photos as always!

    These cookies are fantastic- I have made them many times. Using milk chocolate chips work and taste the best with pumpkin. :)
