Double Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies
Everyone seems to adore the pumpkin spice flavor during Autumn, but what I really enjoy is pumpkin paired with chocolate. It’s a delicious combination! These soft pumpkin chocolate chip cookies bring together everything good about those two flavors. Paired with a glass of milk, these are heaven.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Chocolate Cake Mix. This time, we used Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake mix, but any cake mix you choose will work.
- Canned Pumpkin Puree. I always grab Libby’s brand because it’s my favorite, but again, any brand will do!
- Pumpkin Pie Spice. This is a blend of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves. In theory, you could make your own, but it’s much simpler to get it already put together for you.
- Chocolate Chips. For this recipe we chose semi-sweet chocolate chips, but you could use whatever you’ve got in your cabinet.
- Vegetable Oil.
How To Make Double Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies
- Mix. Simply use a mixer to beat all your ingredients together in a bowl until it’s combined.
- Bake. Scoop cookies onto a parchment lined pan about 3 inches apart. Bake for about 11 minutes.
- Cool. Let the cookies cool for a couple of minutes on the pan before you try to remove them from the baking sheet.
Note: These cookies are a bit fragile coming off the pan because the bottom does not get hard like a typical chocolate chip cookie. For that reason, make sure they haven’t cooled completely before you remove from the pan, and be sure to use a spatula.
If you’ve ever had a cake mix cookie before, you’ll know that they are a very soft and almost fluffy type of cookie that kind of resembles a brownie. They are so delicious, but tend to fall apart easier than most cookies.
How To Store Your Cookies
These cookies are best stored in a single layer or with parchment paper between the layers of cookies so they don’t stick together. Keep them at room temperature and enjoy within about 5-7 days.

- These are super light, pillowy cookies so they are fairly fragile since the bottom doesn’t crisp up like a traditional cookie. Make sure to use a spatula to move them while they are still warm.
- Best stored in a single layer or with parchment paper between the layers of cookies so they don’t stick together.
