Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the room temperature butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
Add the egg and pumpkin puree; mix until combined.
Gradually incorporate the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pudding mix until no dry flour remains.
If desired, fold in chocolate chips for added sweetness.
Scoop rounded balls of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets with space between each.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden; cookies will firm up as they cool.
