Notes
- Pumpkin adds moisture to these cookies so keep in mind that they are moist and almost cake like. The texture may change slightly after they sit a while.
- Drain the pumpkin well by placing it in a strainer, this produces a better texture.
- Ensure the cookies don't overcook or they won't be moist.
- Fold the chocolate chips just until mixed.
- Cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before eating. Once the cookies have finished cooling, store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.
- Place parchment paper between the layers in the container so they don't stick together. Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies can be frozen either before or after baking.
