Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium stainless steel pan, melt unsalted butter over medium heat until golden brown and nutty, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Blot the pumpkin puree on paper towels until it resembles soft playdough.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine cooled brown butter with both sugars, whisking for about 1 minute. Add egg yolks, vanilla extract, and blotted pumpkin, stir until smooth.
  5. Fold in flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, and fine sea salt. Gently stir in chocolate chips.
  6. Scoop dough onto prepared baking trays, spacing them 2 inches apart. Press extra chocolate chips on top.
  7. Bake for 9–13 minutes until edges are golden and centers slightly underbaked.
  8. Cool cookies on trays for about 10 minutes before transferring to an airtight container.
