If you don’t have Pumpkin Pie Spice and want to make your own, head over to Crazy For Crust. It’s made with Cinnamon, Ginger, Nutmeg and Allspice.
HOW TO MAKE PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Preheat oven to 350 degrees f. then grease baking sheet(s). In a medium size bowl, add flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice and salt – mix well. In a separate large bowl, mix/beat butter and sugar until blended well, then add pumpkin, egg and vanilla, mix until batter is smooth. Slowly add flour mixture to the pumpkin batter, mixing until just blended – do not over mix. Last, add chocolate chips until evenly blended – do not over mix.
Drop rounded tablespoon size cookie dough on baking sheet (I use a Pampered Chef medium size scooper).
Bake on the middle rack of the oven for approximately 15 – 18 minutes, until the edges of the cookies turn a slight golden brown and are firm.
Remove from oven, cool for a few minutes on baking sheet, then move cookies to cooling rack to finish cooling.

Now that fall is approaching… well, not yet here in AZ, my family loves pumpkin everything!!! These were a hit and I will definitely make them again. I substituted Splenda granular for regular sugar and they were delish! Thank you for the recipe 😊
