Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup uncooked baby (or regular) 1 cup packed brown sugar
oatmeal* 1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. ground cinnamon 1 egg, slightly beaten
½ tsp. salt 1 cup pumpkin
1 cup butter, softened 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
* I use baby oatmeal, a throwback to when our daughter was young and I thought it might be healthier. Makes the cookie softer, perhaps too soft for some tastes. But it’s a favorite.
- Combine flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- Cream butter, gradually add sugars, beating until light & fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; mix well.
- Alternate additions of dry ingredients & pumpkin, mixing well after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips. Bake at 350 for 10 – 15 minutes.
