Yum! This was just what I was looking for. I used semi-sweet chocolate chips, and made a triple-and-a-half batch since I was using a big (29 oz) can of pumpkin, and they are wonderful! I did substitute pumpkin pie spice for the individual spices listed. They baked up big and fluffy. I used a 3-Tbsp. size scoop and the longer baking time with two cookie sheets full in the oven. Thanks for a great recipe that will be one of my go-to fall recipes from here on out! :)

I made a half batch and ended up with 2 dozen good sized cookies. I really liked the pumpkin cookie dough - soft and plump with just the right amont of spice. Didn't really like the white chocolate and probably should have gone with a semi-sweet instead. Could even see doing with raisins or dried cranberries -- along with a little more spices. (Additional spices would not complement the chocolate.) Thanks Kaarin for a wonderful fall treat.

I'm a stay at home mom with 3 adorable children-an 8 year old daredevil son, a 5 1/2 year old princess and a wild little 2 year old girl! I love to cook, and like having my little helpers in the kitchen!
I usually love recipes that are completely from scratch (I still love them actually) but right now my focus is on having any kind of food ready by mealtime! It's a little crazy here lately. Every summer we have a huge organic garden, apple orchard and raspberry and blueberry patches, along with a woods full of wild foods waiting for me to learn what they are so I can collect them. I'm learning about wild mushrooms first, so if anyone has any tips, let me know. We also eat wild venison which my husband and I hunt ourselves. It's our favorite meat, since it's lean, organic and cheap! Some of my hobbies are: hiking, biking, rock climbing, gardening, playing in the water with my kids, or just swinging in the hammock with a good book. I go stir crazy if I spend too much time inside.
