"Fall Baking My Favorite Cookie"  recipe included!

9/12/2017

21 Comments

 
It is no secret that Fall is my favorite time of the year and with that brings everything Pumpkin.   My friend Robert posted on FB the other day a pic of his pumpkin chocolate chips cookies he received.  Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are my all time favorite cookie, as they have pumpkin and of course chocolate!!  Well, of course I got hungry for them after seeing his post and picked up supplies to make them.   I wanted to share my recipe I have used for years.  I have no idea where I got the recipe.  I just know it's my favorite one.  (I would give credit if I knew).  

Instead of just simply sharing a recipe on the blog I thought I would give step by step visuals as well.  I have been amazed over the years at how many people do not know how to cook.  I was lucky enough to have women in my life (Mother,Grandmother, and Aunt) who sat me on the counter from the time I was little to teach me how.  I also, have my home EC teacher Mrs. Jones to thank for what she taught me.  I'm saddened they have taken Home Economics out of schools, as this is a basic need to know function for life or have we gone down the road to all fast foods and quick and easy.  So, for those who don't need the lesson just follow the recipe or maybe comment and give your tips for someone who may be watching and reading and wants to learn.  Again, I'm not an expert just sharing my favorite recipe!!

​Fall Is In The Air!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Time For Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies"
​
Ingredients List:
1 Cups or 2 sticks of butter
1Cup light brown sugar
1Cup white sugar
2 Large Eggs
1t. Vanilla (t. = teaspoon)
​1 cup Pumpkin puree


3 cups white flour
2 t. baking soda
1/2 t. salt
1 t. ground cinnamon
1/2 t. ground ginger
1/4 t. ground nutmeg
1/4 t. ground cloves
2 cups (12-ounce) chocolate chips

Pre-Heat your over to 350 degrees and I like to line my cookie sheets with parchment paper as you can slide the cookies right off to cool and your cookie sheet stays nice and clean.

Using a mixer, beat your butter till light and fluffy, then add the white and brown sugar a little at a time till they are well blended.  This pic shows not quite blended!

Well blended look!
Next, crack your eggs into a separate bowl.  The reason for this is you don't want to get egg shells into your cookie mix and no one wants to bite into a shell.  Add to the mix and beat till very light and fluffy. (You want fluffly cookies!)
Add your pumpkin puree and mix well!!
For a non-baker tips on measuring accessories.  You want to use the correct spoons when it says t. or T. is does not mean the ones you eat from lol  I had a young girl once think that.  You want measuring spoons.  Flour sifter is great for combining and blending all your dry ingredients evenly into the mix.  Do you like my antique sifter it's as old as the hills!  Measuring cups- there is one for dry and one for liquid and yes they measure differently so you only want to use correct one for wet and dry ingredients.
Next add your Vanilla, sift in all the dry ingredients and mix well!!!  Next is my favorite part adding the chocolate chips.  I usually just mix those in with my rubber spatula.  ​Once you have the chips evenly mixed into the batter, spoon out rounded mounds onto your cookie sheet.  I usually get a dozen on a sheet.  You can purchase a cookie scooper or a ice cream scooper works great!  Set your timer for 15 minutes and check your cookies.  Testing for doneness-press your finger on the cookie and if it springs back and is slightly brown they are all done if not bake another 5 minutes.  I find every oven varies you will just have to test yours to see which works best.  
This is where the parchment paper comes in handy slide it off onto a cooling rack to cool and you have a no mess cookie sheet and your ready to scoop your next batch.  
Enjoy!!!!

I will have to try these cookies! Even though I have been cooking/baking for lots of years, sometimes it's nice to have pics to follow if you're not 100% sure how something should look at a certain point in the process. I am happy for you being able to get back in the swing of what you love to do!
