| Hello, amazing camera. Thank you, amazing fiance. |
I didn’t really know what fall was until we moved to North
Carolina, but I really truly love it. The slightly cooler air, the clear sky…everything
feels so good!
I had to bake for an event at school this week, so I decided
I wanted my house to smell like fall. And these cookies nailed it.
They have the slightest pumpkin flavor due to the pumpkin
butter, and they are crisp on the outside and a little chewy on the inside.
Perfection.
Here's what you need (from How Sweet Eats):
1 1/2 sticks melted, cooled butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg and 1 egg yolk
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup pumpkin butter*
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
3 tbsp corn starch
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
1 1/4 cup of mixed mini chocolate chips and regular
*Pumpkin butter can be hard to find and can be expensive when you do find it. Check out the original recipe for a 2nd recipe that is similar that uses pumpkin puree.
Here's what you do...
1. Preheat oven to 325.
2. Combine flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a bowl. Set aside.
3. In a larger bowl, combine butter and both sugars. Then, add egg, egg yolk and vanilla. Stir. Then add pumpkin butter and stir.
4. Slowly add your flour mixture to your butter/sugar mixture. It is a THICK dough, so take it slow and stir frequently.
5. Fold in your chocolate chips.
6. Roll into small balls and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for no longer than 15 minutes. They will look soft - they are supposed to! I learned this the hard way (my first batch was super burned on the bottom!).
7. Take out of the oven, cool, and enjoy!
These smell like fall and taste like fall. Can something taste like fall? I've decided it can.
Happy baking! We went to a food truck festival on Sunday (food trucks = Madeline's idea of an awesome day), and I have a recipe coming later this week inspired by something we ate...stay tuned!
