Ingredients
  

For the cookie dough
  • 1/2 cup softened butter Room temperature matters
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar Light brown preferred
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree Canned is fine, not pie filling
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon Extra if desired
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
For the mix-ins
  • 1 cup chocolate chunks Chips are okay, but chunks melt better
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker pieces Hand-crushed, no special tools

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the egg yolk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract to the bowl and stir until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Combine the wet and dry ingredient bowls gently without overmixing.
Mixing
  1. Fold in the chocolate chunks, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker pieces.
  2. If the dough feels too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
Baking
  1. Scoop the dough onto a lined baking tray, giving enough space between balls to allow for spreading.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers look soft.
  3. Allow cookies to cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Serving
  1. Serve warm and enjoy with a glass of milk or hot chocolate.
