How to Make Pumpkin Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the creamed butter and sugar mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour until just incorporated.
- Fold in ½ cup chocolate chips or ½ cup chopped pecans (optional).
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
