Ingredients

Scale

1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil (120 ml)
1 teaspoon milk (5 ml)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 ml)
1 cup canned pumpkin or homemade pumpkin puree (245 g)
2 cups all-purpose flour (250 g)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (3 g)
1/2 teaspoon salt (3 g)
2 teaspoons baking powder (8 g)
1 teaspoon baking soda (5 g)
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips (260 g)

Instructions

Add the granulated sugar, oil, milk, egg, and vanilla extract to a large mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
Add the pumpkin puree and mix until the wet ingredients are evenly incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, stirring until a soft cookie dough forms. Do not overmix once the flour is incorporated.
Fold the chocolate chips into the dough until they are evenly distributed.
Portion the soft dough onto a prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake according to the recipe instructions until the cookies are set and cooked through.
Allow the cookies to cool before serving so the soft texture can settle.

Notes

Use plain canned pumpkin or homemade pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
Vegetable or canola oil can be used as specified in the recipe.
Choose semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips depending on your preferred level of sweetness.
