bakery-style pumpkin chocolate chip cookies
How about another delicious cookie recipe for you today? Yes, I recognize that the balance around here has tipped heavily in favor of desserts lately, but why not add a few more? I am a total sucker for those soft, cakey pumpkin cookies from the store bakery. Our grocery store carries them year round, which is bad for me because I can't stop buying them!
Of course I need to try making everything I love at home, and this recipe comes the closest of any I've found. I've been making it for several years now and it never disappoints! I love how easy they are to make, and the texture is just awesome. I whipped up a batch of these for our trip to Moab last week and we happily snacked on them as we drove. I think they actually get better the next day, but they're really delicious anytime! Make them, and you'll love them too!
