A great snack or dessert for the holiday season! 

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup butter
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat or parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and spices. Set aside.
  3. Using a mixer, cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla, and pumpkin and mix until combined, about 3 minutes. Slowly add in the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  4. Drop by large, rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are just beginning to brown around the edges. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for two minutes. Transfer to a wire cooling rack and cool completely.

I am a sophomore, student athlete at Williams College majoring in Economics and Psychology. I was born in Dallas Texas, but grew up in Toronto, Ontario and I am on the Varsity Hockey Team here at school. I love being active, baking, and most of all my French bulldog named Stanley. I am so excited to be a part of Her Campus this year!
