Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

It's pizza night at our house...nothing fancy...just frozen! :) I've had a darn cold this week so I'm sacrificing my dinner (I can't eat frozen pizza) for convenience tonight! I'm too tired to bake a pizza, but not tired to bake pumpkin chocolate chip cookies! :)

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
                   
  1. Combine pumpkin, sugar, vegetable oil, and egg. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Dissolve the baking soda with the milk and stir in. Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix well.           
  2. Add vanilla, chocolate chips and nuts.         
  3. Drop by spoonful on greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for approximately 10 minutes or until lightly brown and firm
I got this recipe on Allrecipes.com. From the reviews they are a more "cakey" cookie! Fine by me...it's chocolate and pumpkin...my two favorite foods right now!!
