Tips for making Chocolate Chips Pumpkin Cookies

Homemade pumpkin puree: you don’t have to add anything extra to it other than the pumpkin. Just cut the pumpkin in smaller pieces/slices, add it into the oven, wait until it’s baked and voila! I prefer use it as it is without adding sugar, salt or other extras.
Use room temperature ingredients for a better binding
Give it time: no matter how delicious are when you take them warm from the oven, you should now that their flavor it’s amplifying in time and the texture feels better when they are already at room temperature

How to store the chocolate chips pumpkin cookies

Due to ingredients like butter and eggs the cookies don’t store well beyond 3 days but this shouldn’t worry you. They will be long gone by that time.

You should know though that freezing the cookies or the dough works perfectly and this way you could storage them for 1-3 months.
