Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1 cup solid-pack pumpkin puree
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips *

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a Silpat mat, set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine sugars, vegetable oil, pumpkin puree and vanilla. Mix on medium for about 1 minute. Add egg, mixing until just combined.
In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. With mixing speed on low, gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until no flour pockets remain. Remove bowl from stand and fold in the chocolate chips by hand.
Scoop onto prepared sheets and place in oven to bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are firm and light brown in color. Remove from oven and allow to cool on sheets for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

*NOTE: I used 1½ c. regular size chocolate chips and ½ c. mini chocolate chips, however, I realize most people don’t have minis on hand so the recipe calls for 2 c. of regular size chips.
