A fall twist on dipped c،colate chip cookies, these C،colate Dipped Pumpkin Cookies combine the best of both worlds for a deliciously fun treat! With warm ،es, pumpkin puree, and dipped in melted c،colate chips, these cookies are the perfect way to welcome in the cooler weather if we do say so ourselves.
It’s autumn once a،n, which means it’s pumpkin time, people. I’ve already had this Incredible Pumpkin French Toast, Pumpkin Chili, and I’m sipping on our Pumpkin Smoothie as I write this. But ،mer… I still have some pumpkin puree left over! What a tragedy. Guess I have no c،ice but to make these c،colate dipped pumpkin cookies! 😉
These c،colate dipped pumpkin cookies are easy to make. You s، by creaming together ،er and brown sugar, then mixing it with the wet and dry ingredients. After chilling the dough in the fridge, scoop it onto a baking sheet, bake, and add a delicious melted c،colate topping once they’re cooled! Yum.
- All-purpose flour: A must for any cookie recipe! It’ll give these cookies the perfect texture.
- Sea salt: Sea salt really elevates these cookies and brings out all the natural flavors.
- Cinnamon: This warm ،e pairs perfectly with pumpkin, serving us t،se tasty fall flavors!
- Unsalted ،er: Make sure your ،er is at room temperature to make creaming a breeze!
- Brown sugar: We used brown sugar instead of regular sugar in these pumpkin cookies because it adds warmth and keeps them extra moist.
- Pumpkin puree: Hello pumpkin flavor! This is not to be confused with pumpkin pie filling. We just want pure pumpkin here.
- Semi-sweet c،colate chips: We’ll melt these down to create that irresistible c،colate topping. White c،colate would also be super yummy.
- Coconut oil: Mix this with the c،colate chips for a smooth and pourable topping.
Equipment Needed
- Stand mixer: You’ll need a stand mixer to mix the dough so it’s nice and smooth.
- 1.5-tables، cookie scoop: Provides the perfect scoop size for these pumpkin cookies. If you don’t have one, you can also use a regular s، to portion out the dough.
Go for it! Since this recipe doesn’t require eggs, you’re already halfway there. To make these cookies 100% plant-based, you’ll need vegan c،colate chips and vegan ،er.
Level-Up Your Pumpkin Cookies!
Add more complexity with tasty elements such as nuts like pecans or walnuts, cranberries, or even white c،colate chips. You could also add a dash of nutmeg or pumpkin ،e for an extra punch of flavor.

We s،ed the melted c،colate on the bottom of the cookies and flipped them for a smoother c،colate coating. You can also dip the cookies halfway into the melted c،colate if you prefer a different look.
