Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups light brown sugar, packed
• 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 cup toffee bits

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, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a hand mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and egg yolk to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat on medium speed until fully incorporated. The mixture may appear slightly curdled—this is normal.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the toffee bits using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers appear slightly underbaked. Avoid overbaking for soft and chewy cookies.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
