About this picture...I forgot to take pictures of the 5 dozen cookies I had made. There were 2 cookies left one morning when I was about to leave for work. I grabbed the biggest and most attractive looking one of the two. I was eating it in the car (that's right, a cookie for breakfast) when I realized there was only 1 cookie left and I hadn't taken any pictures (immediately regretting leaving the small, lame one for John, not good for a picture). Anyway, I called John and said "please do not eat that cookie! I need to take a picture of it." That is why I put this tiny cookie beside a pumpkin. Don't let the appearance of the photo sway you though! These cookies are truly delicious!
I went grocery shopping last week and now my shelves are semi re-stocked with canned pumpkin. I bought 5 cans but as I was driving home I began to worry that I didn't get enough! I mean you never know. There are just so many pumpkin things I want to make. And I don't want the stores to run out! Which was a problem last Thanksgiving...
Speaking of stores not having things...I could not find cinnamon chips! I went to Giant Eagle (this areas huge grocery store) and thought I was just blind when I couldn't find them anywhere. I was on my way to Target to see if they had them when I randomly saw a 'Shop & Save' so I quickly stopped. And wouldn't you know, they had cinnamon chips! And every other chip under the sun!
These cookies were delicious: cakey, with pumpkin, chocolate, and cinnamon goodness in every bite! They were a hit with our Bible Study and at John's work (the first time I ever made cookies for John to bring to work...I felt like such a wife)
I got the recipe from keepitsweetblog.com. I love this blog because it is filled with delicious baked goods!
