Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 cup pumpkin purée
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix-ins
- 1 cup graham crackers, broken into pieces
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks or chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well. Then, beat in the pumpkin purée until fully combined.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined to form a soft dough.
- Fold in mix-ins: Gently fold the graham cracker pieces, chocolate chunks, and mini marshmallows into the dough, ensuring even distribution without overmixing.
- Scoop and shape: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are set and lightly golden, while the centers remain soft.
- Cool and serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool for at least 5 minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For extra gooey marshmallows, add a few more on top of each cookie dough ball before baking.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Replace semi-sweet chocolate with dark or milk chocolate chips based on preference.
- Ensure pumpkin purée is 100% pure pumpkin without added spices or sugars for best control over flavor.
