Our pumpkin oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are chewy, soft, and loaded with chocolate chunks and pumpkin spice. You'll love the combination of 3 classic cookies to create these treats.

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl cream butter and sugars together until blended and fluffy.
Add egg, vanilla, and pumpkin puree. Mix.
In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients.
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until combined.
Stir in chocolate chunks.
Using a medium cookie scoop (2 Tbsp.), scoop cookies and place them on parchment-lined (or silicone-lined) baking sheets.
Bake cookies for 8 minutes. Remove cookies from the oven and tap the cookie sheet against the counter a few times (this will help the cookies flatten slightly). Place cookies BACK INTO THE OVEN and bake an additional 4 minutes. Tap the cookie sheet against the counter a couple more times.
Cookies will bake for a total of 12 minutes.
Allow cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes
Tapping the cookie sheet against the counter is optional, but helps create a more desirable cookie thickness and texture.
