Ingredients

Scale

1 cup cold unsalted butter
2/3 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
2 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a stainless steel pan, brown the cold butter until nutty and foamy, then cool it in the fridge until it reaches about 75°F.
Prepare the pumpkin by blotting out excess moisture until it resembles soft playdough.
Combine the sugars with the cooled butter using a whisk until light and fluffy.
Whisk in egg yolks, vanilla extract, and dried pumpkin puree until well mixed.
Gently fold in flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, sea salt, and chocolate chips until just combined.
Scoop out dough into balls and space them on prepared trays.
Bake for 9–13 minutes until edges are golden but centers are still soft. Let cool on wire racks.
