  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: Transfer browned butter to a mixing bowl, cool slightly, then whisk in pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, then fold into wet ingredients until no dry flour remains.
  4. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently mix semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough until evenly distributed.
  5. Chill Dough: Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
  6. Bake Cookies: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C), line baking sheet with parchment paper, scoop dough onto sheet, and bake for 12 minutes or until edges are golden.
