Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies


These are a huge hit with everyone in our family...even the kids! And they are super easy and quick and it makes a ton.
Mix the following ingredients together:
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
16 ounces of canned pumpkin
2 teaspoons of milk
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
4 cups of all purpose flour
4 teaspoons of baking powder
2 teaspoons of baking soda
1 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of cinnamon

then last add 1 bag of chocolate chips. Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes.

An even bigger hit with my hubby is that these cookies can easily turn into whoopie pies sue to there shape and texture. So I use a simple buttercream frosting to sandwich two cookies with.
Mix....
1/2 cup butter, soft
1/2 shortening
1 teaspoon of vanilla
then add in 4 cups confectionary sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk until fluffy.

  1. Made this today...so easy and so yummy! I even used whole wheat flour (2 1/2 cups along with 1 1/2 cups white) and they still came out great. Thanks for this blog!
