Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cups Chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or a stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Step 4

Add the pumpkin puree, egg yolk, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy! Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
