3 Ingredient Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is a great recipe with a yummy pumpkin flavor. They're light, fluffy, moist and perfect for your fall bake sale at church or school.

Having only 3 ingredients is the best part of the recipe. It's great for beginners and younger bakers. No need for butter and sugars!

The third reason these are great is that they're eggless. For those that aren't regular readers of my website, I'm allergic to eggs and I have a lot of desserts that are egg free. This is a great eggless dessert that everyone will enjoy.

Tools to make 3 Ingredient Pumpkin Cookies

Baking Sheet– I’ve had these baking sheets forever and love that they are bigger. I can usually get 16 cookies on a sheet when I’m baking.

Large bowl– I LOVE stainless steel bowls. They are great in the kitchen for all kinds of cooking and baking. They hold up well and don’t need to replace often.

Ingredients needed for eggless pumpkin cookies

• spice cake mix
• pumpkin puree- NOT pumpkin pie filling, just regular pumpkin.
• chocolate chips- I normally bake with milk chocolate morsels but semi sweet chocolate chips will do.

Here's one of the ingredients that I use.  It's the Betty Crocker Super Moist Spice Cake Mix.  So now you'll know what to look for when you go to the grocery store.

How to make these simple chocolate chip pumpkin cookies

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Step 2

Grab a large mixing bowl and add your dry ingredients (the cake mix) first.

Add in the pumpkin puree and chocolate chips and stir until well combined. This batter will be very thick.

UPDATE-  I was being lazy when I made these today and just used a fork to mix it.  I didn't want to get out my hand mixer.  It worked great!  Makes this recipe even easier!

Step 3

Line your baking sheet with baking mats, parchment paper or give a light spray with oil.

Step 4

Using a spoon, scoop the dough and put on your baking sheet at least an inch apart. No need to flatten them.

Bake for 20 minutes, let cool for a 5 minutes and transfer to a wire rack.

Variation: You can add cream cheese icing if you'd like, but I think they are really good without the icing.  The pumpkin pie spice isn't overwhelming and I love the chocolate chips added in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use pumpkin pie filling instead of pumpkin puree?

No. Use plain pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. Pumpkin pie filling already contains sugar and spices and will change the recipe.

What size can of pumpkin do I need?

Use one 15-ounce can of pumpkin puree.

Are these pumpkin cookies eggless?

Yes! This recipe doesn't require eggs.

Do I need butter?

No. That's another reason these cookies are so easy—there's no butter required.

Can I use different chocolate chips?

Yes. You could use milk, semisweet or dark chocolate chips depending on your preference.

How to Store Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Once these cookies cool, you'll want to store these in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

Enjoy!
