Ingredients:

  • 115g unsalted butter
  • 120g pumpkin puree
  • 150g light brown sugar
  • 50g granulated white sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 5ml pure vanilla extract
  • 220g all-purpose flour
  • 2g baking soda
  • 1g baking powder
  • 8g pumpkin pie spice
  • 3g kosher salt
  • 175g semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Melt the 115g unsalted butter in a light colored saucepan over medium heat. Whisk constantly until the foam subsides and dark amber bits appear at the bottom. Note: This creates the nutty base.
  2. Pour the butter into a large bowl and let it cool for about 5 minutes so you don't scramble the egg.
  3. Spread 120g pumpkin puree onto several layers of paper towels. Press more towels on top until the puree is thick and concentrated.
  4. Add the 150g light brown sugar and 50g granulated sugar to the cooled browned butter and whisk vigorously.
  5. Whisk in the single large egg yolk and 5ml vanilla extract until the mixture looks smooth and glossy.
  6. Stir in the blotted pumpkin puree using a spatula until no orange streaks remain.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk the 220g flour, leavenings, 8g pumpkin spice, and 3g salt.
  8. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Note: Overmixing will lead to a tough cookie.
  9. Fold in the 175g semi sweet chocolate chips.
  10. Cover and chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Do not skip this.
  11. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two sheets with parchment.
  12. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and bake for 11 minutes until the edges are set and golden.
  13. Let cool on the sheet for 10 minutes before moving to a wire rack to finish.
