Ingredients:
- 15.25 oz spice cake mix
- 15 oz pumpkin puree
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats to prevent the sticky dough from tearing.
- In a large mixing bowl, empty the dry spice cake mix and add the entire can of pumpkin puree.
- Using a sturdy silicone spatula, stir the mixture until no dry streaks of flour remain. Note that the dough will be thick and sticky, similar to brownie batter.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips by hand until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Optional: Let the dough sit for 10 minutes to allow the dry mix to fully hydrate for a more uniform texture.
- Use a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop to drop rounded mounds onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 13 minutes until set. Allow to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
