Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Perfect Pairing:  Parchment Paper
IMG_8007-1

It is hard to improve on the classic chocolate chip cookie, but this pumpkin version is perfect for fall.  The addition of pumpkin and autumn spices adds a subtle but tasty flavor. I chose to use the canned pumpkin pie mix rather than 100% pumpkin since it already had a lot of the spices included.  These cookies come out a little cake-like compared to a traditional cookie, but I like the texture.  They are definitely a fall favorite with my family.  Even my ADORABLE niece and nephews loved them!
Can you even stand the cuteness?  Those curls!

I saw lots of little hands reaching up to the counter to grab the cookies.

This little one is not ready for cookies yet but I had to share her picture because she is just so perfect.

The Perfect Pairing for this recipe is parchment paper.  I found that these particular cookies come off the pan much easier when you line the pan with parchment paper rather than cooking spray.  It is also easy clean up.  Bonus!
