How To Make pumpkin chocolate chip cookies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

Step 2

In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg and ground cloves. In a large bowl stir together pumpkin puree, brown sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla, egg and optional red food coloring. Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture in 3 intervals; stirring just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips. If you would like the cookies to look more orange than brown add 6-7 drops of red food coloring to the pumpkin mixture before blending in the flour.
Step 3

Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets. Gently press several chocolate chips into the top of the cookies. Bake for 12-13 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before moving to cookie cooling racks.
