Recipe: White Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies

Recipe for White Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies - P1100209

These (girlfriend-approved) white chocolate chip cookies made with a pumpkin puree dough are an ideal treat for autumn celebrations and festive season snacking.

I don’t think I’ve seen my girlfriend quite so excited about me coming up with a recipe as she was when the first round of cookies were baking and filling our house with such a yummy aroma. They will be baked again!

With pumpkin puree and an egg in the mix they stay super moist.

When I make my next batch I might add some pecans or mix in some maple syrup (it’s a sugar-free/honey-rich recipe)

Also I should point out that I used Guittard Choc-Au-Lait vanilla milk baking chips – which are super delicious on their own and very vanilla-y. If using another white chocolate chip it might be a good idea to add vanilla or vanilla extract to the recipe.
