Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies



This is a recipe I tried from here.  I really liked the cookie recipe but was uncertain about the icing (brown sugar icing, tastes faintly of butterscotch).  I only made a half-batch of icing and in the end decided the cookies were better without the icing mentioned on the original recipe.  Click on the above link if you want to try the icing for yourself. 

Cream Together:

1/2 C white sugar
1 C brown sugar
1 C butter, softened

Add:
1 C pumpkin
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg

Sift together the dry ingredients then add to the pumpkin mixture:
2 C flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/4 tsp salt

Add 1 C chocolate chips.

The dough is very wet.  Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes (cookies will still be soft in the middle).  I cooked half the recipe on parchment paper and half without and had much nicer cookies using the parchment paper.

Enjoy!  And thanks again to The Girl Who Ate Everything for a delicious recipe.

  1. Oooh these look delicious. We made lots and lots of pumpkin muffins last week, but I've never had pumpkin cookies. I love the fall and the squashes!
