Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ok, folks. This recipe was the one I've been ever so patiently waiting for it to come into my grasp! Ever since Kandy brought these suckers in to the break room, and I alone demolished 4 (yes, 4!), I've been awaiting this day. So here it is folks, the recipe for the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip wonder cookies.

(I almost wanted to make this picture super-sized so you can all bask in the glory of the pumpkin-y, chocolate-y goodness, but I spared you.)

·         PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

14.5 ounce can pumpkin
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
4 teaspoons baking powder
4 cups all-purpose flour
12 ounce package chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet, I add a few mini chips also)

Oven at 375 degrees

In a large bowl, combine pumpkin, eggs, sugar, oil, milk and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, blend flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture.
Stir until nicely combined but don’t over mix.  Then fold in the chocolate chips.
On ungreased cookie sheets, make small dollops of mixture (about a tablespoons’ worth).  Cookies  do not bake larger—they bake to the size you make them.
Sprinkle a sugar/nutmeg mixture over the unbaked cookie.
Bake about 10 minutes.
This recipe makes a LOT!!!  About 70 cookies (I don't think I have a problem with this one, Kandy. The more the merrier.)

P.S. Sorry for the delay, I've got more recipes coming I swear! Just a matter of fitting in the graduation requirements first. I'll get there! Thanks for the patience. :) Oh, and keep the recipes coming!!
