Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip CookiesThis recipe for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies has been in my family for YEARS! 

It is the perfect recipe for a delicious fall cookie. Super simple to mix up with a yummy, soft, almost cake/muffin-like consistency, and just the right amount of chocolate chips sprinkled throughout!

These never last long at our house. You may want to make a double batch.

I like to use semi sweet chocolate chips in this recipe, It really brings out the cinnamon and pumpkin flavor.
