    Fall is in the air with these soft and delicious Spice Cake Mix Pumpkin Cookies. An easy recipe that uses a cake mix and only 2 other ingredients. For added fun and taste make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies with Spice Cake Mix. You will thank me later.

    Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

    Cake mix cookies are always a great cookie recipe. Feel free to use any flavor of cake mix from Yellow Cake Mix to Vanilla Cake Mix. I do prefer using a Spice Cake Mix as it pairs so nicely with the fall flavors and pumpkin if you ask me.

    Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies are a soft and fluffy cookie recipe. Adding chocolate chips is purely optional but does add a tasty treat. And if you think a semi sweet chocolate chip is good, try adding white chocolate chips or a combination of both. Delish!

    You may also like Texas Sheet Cake Cookies, Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies, Cream Cheese Cookies or Butter Beer Cookies all made with cake mixes.

    Baking Sheet. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or use silicone baking mat for easy clean up. Or use an ungreased cookie sheet to bake cookies.

    Cake Mix Brand. Use a quality cake mix brand. Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker

    Cookie Scoop. Using a cookie scoop to make uniform cookie sizes help for even baking of all cookies.

    Substitutions

    Storage and Freezing

    Cake mix cookies should be stored in an airtight container. I also like to use a ZipLoc bag where I can remove as much air as possible to keep cookies soft and fresh. Cookies are best if enjoyed within 2-3 days but will last up to a week.

    Freeze Cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Place a piece of wax paper or parchment paper between layers to prevent cookies from sticking to each other. Cake Mix Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies are more cake like than other cake mix cookies giving a nice soft texture.

      I accidently picked up a package of mini-chips and the cookies came out good that way too.
      Chocolate chunks! Mmm Good!
      Mini chips! Mmm Good!

      I might even try a bag of white chocolate chits with this easy recipe.
