→ Toppings (Optional)

15 - 1/2 cup chocolate chips
16 - Mini marshmallows

# Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
03 - Add pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix until fully incorporated. If desired, blend in orange food coloring.
04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
05 - Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
06 - Gently fold in chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker pieces.
07 - Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each about 2 inches apart.
08 - Press additional marshmallows, chocolate chips, and/or graham cracker pieces onto the tops of each portion.
09 - Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes, until the edges are golden and centers remain soft.
10 - Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for several minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving at room temperature.

# Notes:

01 - Avoid overbaking for a soft, chewy cookie texture; cookies will continue to firm as they cool.
