Does the end of November mean we have to stop thinking about recipes with pumpkin? I hope not. I like pumpkin. So when I came across this recipe, I thought it seemed like an intriguing dessert for a Football Foodz day.
I found this one over at Favorite Family Recipes. I'm glad I did. Cookies have been a fun new thing for me lately.
Ingredients:
1 box of spice cake mix
1 15 oz can of pure pumpkin
1 bag (10 oz) of bittersweet chocolate chips
I followed this one exactly. I am too chicken with regards to baking to make changes or take chances.
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375.
Mix the cake mix and the pumpkin together until blended. Then, fold in the chocolate chips.
Drop by spoonful onto a greased cookie sheet (I used a Silpat) and bake for 8-9 minutes.
Some tips:
Make sure not to drop in too big a spoonfuls or the cookies get huge.
Working with cake mix cookies can be a bit tricky seeing as the dough grows a BUNCH in baking.
Here they are
These were pretty good. I think I personally preferred the flavor of the dough to the actual cookie. The CEO really wanted nothing to do with these and. as it was before I figured out that his coworkers will happily eat my leftover cookies, I ended up throwing some of these away, which made me sad.
If you like gingerbread cookies and the like, these are tasty. I just couldn't eat them alone.
I made Pumpkin Spice bread on the same day, which was epic.
NoM!
