There is one thing for sure, I crave Pumpkin Cookies as soon as October rolls around. This year, in an effort to help my waistline, I managed to refrain from baking any until today. Pretty good huh? It was tough. Anyway, I have been making these cookies since I was a wee farmgirl, ok I lived in the city, but I was an aspiring farmgirl. They are cakey, gooey with chocolate and just down right DELISH! Now the trick will be to see how many hours they will last until I need to whip up another batch! You should make some today – and bring me a few! I’m sure mine will be gone lickety split!

Add a cup of chocolate chips.
Eat a few. Toss a few extra in the bowl. Eat a few more. Hide the rest of the bag somewhere where the kids won’t find it. |

I just found your website and these just came out of my oven. Y-U-M! It may be July, but my heart longs for October. Quick question: exactly how much pumpkin is a “small can of pumpkin”? I guesstimated that it was 1 cup (or a little more since I heart pumpkin). They turned out well regardless of the exact amount, but the perfectionist in me really wants to know. 🙂
[…] for the past year or so, you’ll recall that my photos used to not be so fantastic. Like this one. Not appetizing at all. Anyway, if you’re a budding photog like me, then you might find […]
