Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
The cookie dough combines softened butter with white and brown sugars, pumpkin puree, and vanilla, creating a moist base. Flour, oatmeal, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt are mixed separately and then combined with the wet ingredients. The resulting batter is wetter than typical cookie dough, contributing to tender cookies after baking. Chocolate chips add pockets of sweetness throughout.
Cookies are dropped by spoonfuls onto an ungreased sheet and baked for 10-12 minutes at 350°F, with additional bake time producing a crisper texture. The pumpkin and spices lend a mild warmth, balancing the chocolate's richness.
For pumpkin pie spice substitutes, blend cinnamon and nutmeg as suggested. Avoid storing these cookies tightly covered to prevent them from becoming mushy.
