Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

aka: Amazing-ness.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving and pumpkin-goodness, I'll share this! These cookies are so incredible, everyone who eats them just can't get enough. I got this recipe from a friend and I've loved making them ever since! Plus, since the pumpkin keeps them so moist, it is so hard (if not impossible) to make them crunchy...and I do love a good soft, moist cookie :)


Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

2 c. flour
1 1/3 c. oats
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp salt
1 c. butter or margarine
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. packed pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling!)
1 c. sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
¾ c. chocolate chips (I always use more!)

Beat margarine and sugars. Add pumpkin, egg and vanilla. Mix together dry ingredients and add to first mixture. Mix in chocolate chips. Bake at 350 degrees for 14-16 minutes.
