Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Nov 18, 2012 by Ben

Fall is the best time of year because of of one simple reason.  Pumpkin.  Pumpkin pie, pumpkin smoothies, pumpkin everything, and it is wonderful.  I love pumpkin and I love pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and you will too.

Here is what you will need to make these awesome cookies

These are very easy to make, and here is how you do it.

In a mixing bowl throw in one cup of canned pumpkin

add 1/2 cup vegetable oil

add one egg

add 1 cup white sugar and mix all that together.

In a separate bowl we are going to add all the dry ingredients together.

Stir together flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Dissolve the baking soda with the milk and stir in. Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix well. (not pictured)

When its all mixed up add the 2 cups of chocolate chips and mix it up.

Spoon out the cookies onto a greased cookie sheet and bake at 350°F for approximately 10-12 minutes or until lightly brown and firm.

They will come out like this in all its pumpkin glory and everyone will love them and thus love you for making them.  Plus it makes your whole house smell like pumpkin, which is never bad.

I doubled the recipe to use the entire can of pumpkin, which may or may not have been a good idea, but it sure did make a whole ton of cookies!  Luckily I just send them to work with my wife and all the people in her hospital love her for it.

If you are looking for a good desert to make this fall, this is always a good one to make.

Also if you want to try something AMAZING, try the Pumpkin Snickerdoodles.
