Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1 cup Brown Sugar, light brown sugar works best
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup Pumpkin Puree, 100% pure pumpkin
- 1 large Egg, or flax egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour, or gluten-free blend
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 tablespoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Mini Marshmallows, vegan options available
- 1 cup Graham Crackers, crushed, or gluten-free
- 1 teaspoon Orange Food Coloring, optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mix in pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add orange food coloring if using.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Gently fold in chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and crushed graham crackers.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- Press additional marshmallows, chocolate chips, and graham cracker pieces onto each dough ball.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes until edges are golden and centers are slightly underbaked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Customize your cookies with different chocolate types or nuts.
- Ensure butter is softened, not melted, to prevent cookies from spreading too much.
- Chilling the dough for 30 minutes can also help prevent excessive spreading.
- For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free flour blend.
- For a dairy-free option, use vegan butter, non-dairy chocolate chips, and vegan marshmallows.
