A warm, gooey skillet cookie with a soft, pumpkin-spiced center and crispy edges, studded with semi-sweet chocolate chips. It’s the perfect quick and easy fall dessert that comes together in one bowl and under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Add the pumpkin puree and mix on low speed until just combined.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula, reserving a handful to press onto the top of the batter later.
  8. Lightly grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet with butter or non-stick spray. Spread the cookie dough evenly into the skillet. Press the reserved chocolate chips onto the surface.
  9. Bake for 18-22 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and set, but the center still looks slightly soft and underdone.
  10. Let the skillet cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For the best texture, make sure your butter is truly softened, not melted. If you only have salted butter, reduce the added salt to 1/4 teaspoon. For a deeper flavor, try browning the butter first. Do not overbake; the center should still look slightly soft when you pull it out of the oven. Let the skillet cool for at least 10 minutes to allow the center to set.
