What Says Fall More than Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

I had a hankering for some cookies today! Not just any cookies but some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies. I mean what says fall more than that? I looked around the internet for some ideas. I have always loved Libby’s Pumpkin cookie recipe but I just wanted to see if I could find anything better. I kind of mixed a couple of recipes together to create these scrumptious melt in your mouth perfect fall pumpkin chocolate chip cookie.

Making Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Before I started making these cookies I turned on The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown music using our Alexa! Does it get any better than baking Pupmpkin Chocolate chip cookies that says Fall to the music from that classic Halloween movie?

I think not!

Okay on to the recipe- In a bowl mix the dry ingredients which are 2 C flour, 1 C old fashioned oats, 3/4 tsp kosher salt, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice, 1 tsp baking soda (which I actually forgot hahah).

Then in my kitchen aid I beat 1 C butter, with 1 C sugar until fluffy. Add in 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla, Zest of 1 orange (I really think the orange flavor brings out the flavors of the pumpkin, cinnamon and ginger) and 8 oz or half a can of Libby’s solid packed Pumpkin.

Beat until combined. Add in the dry ingredients and mix well. Add in 1 C or a little bit more of Chocolate chips. We love Ghiradelli Semi and Sweet and Dark 60% chocolate chips mixed.

Using a medium sized cookie scoop, scoop dough and place on a cookies sheet. They don’t spread a whole lot…it might be because I forgot the baking soda haha.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 10-13 minutes.

Make The Glaze

Make the glaze- melt butter and mix in brown sugar until dissolved. Add in powdered sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and milk or cream.

Mix until smooth and drips off a spoon

Once out of the oven let pumpkin chocolate chip cookies cool for a few minutes and then drizzle the frosting over the top! YUMMMMM!

Enjoy these perfect fall cookies with a tall glass of milk and watch the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown or maybe Hocus Pocus!

These cookies would be great for a family Halloween party like this one!

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
