    These tasty pumpkin cookies are packed with delicious flavor in every soft cookie bite. With the pumpkin spice, pumpkin puree, and white chocolate chips all pairing so well together, these cookies are a big Fall favorite.

    These pumpkin spice white chocolate chip cookies are easy to make, and the hardest part is simply waiting for the dough to chill before scooping. While you can simply skip the chilled part- it's needed if you want those puffy cookies that melt in your mouth!

    ingredients needed to make pumpkin white chocolate chip cookies

    🥘 Ingredients

    Sugar- You will need some granulated sugar to make these cookies soft and sweet.

    Butter- Using butter will give us a richer taste in every cookie.

    Egg- This is needed to bind the dough together well.

    Vanilla- A flavor enhancer.

    Pumpkin Puree- Use pumpkin puree for a fresh pumpkin flavor and orange color.

    Salt- This is a natural flavor enhancer.

    Baking Soda- To help the cookies rise nicely as they bake, you will need some baking soda.

    Pumpkin Pie Spice- Adding in pumpkin pie spice will give us a nice warm flavor in every cookie.

    Flour- The gluten structure and base of this recipe is all-purpose flour.

    White Chocolate Chips- You will need some white chocolate chips to scatter throughout the dough so that every cookie gets plenty in every bite.

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    If you want to let the white chocolate pumpkin cookies dough chill longer than 2 hours, you can allow it to chill up to 2 days in advance. I find that the flavors are even a little better when they have longer to meld together.

    Making the cookie dough at night and then chilling them overnight is a great way to wake up and bake warm cookies to snack on all day!

    💭 FAQs

    How long are pumpkin cookies good for?

    These cookies are good for 3-5 days at room temperature if kept stored in an airtight container. Any longer than that and they may become staler. Cookies are best enjoyed fresh.

    Do pumpkin chocolate chip cookies freeze well?

    Yes, these cookies freeze very well. I recommend either flash-freezing them on a cookie sheet for an hour or laying them in an airtight container with wax paper between layers to prevent sticking. Freeze for up to 3 months.

    Can I make cookies with homemade pumpkin puree?

    Absolutely! Homemade pumpkin puree or storebought, either one is great with these easy cookies. Just make sure that you don't accidentally grab a can of pumpkin pie filling as that is something else entirely and won't work right with this cookie recipe.
