Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie

Packed full of chocolate chips, chocolate chunks and the mouth-watering Blendsmiths Pumpkin Spice flavour, these cookies are the epitome of all things cosy and Autumnal. 

Ingredients:

170 g vegan margarine, melted, 80 g caster sugar, 70 g light brown sugar, 60 g canned pumpkin puree, 1 tbsp aquafaba, 1 tbsp vanilla extract, ½ tsp instant coffee powder, 200 g oat flour, 50 g plain flour, 2 tbsp Pumpkin Spice Blend, 1 tsp baking soda, ½ tsp salt, 100 g vegan chocolate chips, 50 g vegan dark chocolate, roughly chopped, 50 g vegan milk chocolate, roughly chopped, flaky salt, for garnish.

Method:

In a bowl, whisk together melted margarine, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Then add pumpkin puree, aquafaba, vanilla, and coffee powder—whisk away!

In another bowl, combine the flours, pumpkin spice, baking soda, and salt. Stir well. Now, fold the dry mix into the wet mix using a spatula until just combined (a few flour pockets are okay!).

Fold in about ¾ of the chocolate chips and chopped chocolate. Chill the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line two baking trays with parchment paper. Scoop the dough into 8 balls, leaving space between each. Top with the remaining chocolate bits!

Bake for 15 minutes. If you want perfectly round cookies, gently shape them with a glass right after they come out of the oven. Let them sit for 5 minutes on the trays before transferring to a cooling rack.

Optional Toppings!

For extra chocolatey goodness, add more chocolate chunks on top while warm. A sprinkle of sea salt is a great touch too!
