Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
Brown the cold unsalted butter in a stainless steel pan until nutty and golden; chill until cool but liquid.
Blot pumpkin puree to remove excess moisture.
Whisk cooled butter with sugars until pale and sandy, then incorporate egg yolks, vanilla extract, and prepared pumpkin.
Gently fold in flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, salt, and chocolate until just combined.
Use a cookie scoop to form dough balls on prepared trays, spaced apart.
Bake for 9-13 minutes until edges are golden; centers should be slightly underbaked.
Cool on wire racks before serving.
