Equipment

  • large bowl
  • wooden spoon
  • hand mixer
  • cookie sheets
  • wire rack

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup softened butter 115g
  • ¼ cup white sugar 50g
  • ¾ cup coconut sugar 150g
  • 2 egg yolks
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree, blotted with paper towels 120g
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • cup chocolate chips
  • 8 marshamallows cut in half

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare the Wet Ingredients

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the 2 egg yolks, blotted pumpkin purée, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.

Step 2: Combine the Dry Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.

Step 3: Mix the Dough

  • Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in the dark chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.

Step 4: Chill The Dough

  • This step is super important to ensure the cookies keep their shape! Chill the dough for at least 2 hours in the fridge.

Step 5: Shape the Cookies

  • Scoop about 2 tablespoons of prepared cookie dough, flatten slightly, and place half a marshmallow in the center. Wrap the dough around the marshmallow and seal completely.
  • Tip: Be sure the dough is really really cold for this step. I also use food safe disposable gloves to help prevent the dough from sticking to my hands.

Step 6: Chill the Dough

  • Place the unbaked cookie dough balls on a tray, cover, and refrigerate for 30min.

Step 7: Bake the Cookies

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Arrange chilled dough balls 2 inches apart and bake for 11–13 minutes, until edges are set and tops are lightly golden brown.

Step 8: Cool and Enjoy

  • Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
