Happy first day of fall ya’ll! It’s here, it’s finally here! I feel like everyone loves fall. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who didn’t like fall. It’s just the best! And with it comes pumpkin — cake, bread, drinks — pumpkin everything! So how about some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies?
In honor of the first day of fall, I wanted to share a pumpkin recipe with you. My roommate Ricci used to make these cookies every fall and we all went ga-ga over them! I decided to whip up a batch myself and eat them all myself share with friends and co-workers.
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Flour
- Oats
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Cinnamon
- Nutmeg
- Ginger
- Butter
- Brown sugar
- Sugar
- Egg
- Vanilla
- Pumpkin pie mix
- Chocolate chips (Any kind you want. Dark chocolate, anyone?)
These cookies are pretty simple to make. You start by mixing most of the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
Then you cream the butter and sugars together. I did it in my KitchenAid mixer. Then add in the egg and vanilla. Then the pumpkin.
Next, while the mixer is stirring I added in the dry ingredients. Then threw in the chocolate chips, did a couple stirs and the dough was ready. I let the dough sit for about 5 minutes to let it set up. Then scoop it onto a cookie sheet. I used parchment paper so there is less of a clean up! Bake and eat! These are so yummy when they are warm!
