Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies


I love love love pumpking chocolate chip cookies. It's ridiculous how much I love these cookies. I could eat the whole batch by myself and I know that I shouldn't...that's how much I love them. I try to tell myself that they are not bad for me because of the vitamins in pumpkin...whatever! Try this recipe and if you like pumpkin you may just fall in love as well.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 c sugar
1 c vegetable shortening
1 15 ounce can pumpkin puree
2 tsp vanilla
4 c flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
12 oz. chocolate chips (I did 6 ounces of semi-sweet and 6 ounces of milk chocolate)

► Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
► Cream together sugar, shortening, pumpkin, and vanilla. Mix until light and combined.
► Mix the flour, baking soda and cinnamon in a separate bowl. Stir flour mixture into creamed mixture. Mix until combined.
► Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonful (or tablespoonful if you are me) onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake 12-15 minutes or until set. Cool cookies on rack.
