Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) Spice cake mix
- 15 oz Canned pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp Pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Optional mix-ins (e.g., chocolate chips, nuts, or dried cranberries)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the spice cake mix, canned pumpkin puree, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined. The dough will be thick, but no dry cake mix should remain.
If you are using mix-ins such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried cranberries, fold them gently into the dough.
Using a medium cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and slightly golden around the edges.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
