Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup canned pumpkin

1 cup white sugar

½ cup vegetable oil (I used coconut oil)

1 egg

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

2 tsp ground cinnamon (I used 1 tsp cinnamon, and the other tsp was a mix of nutmeg, cloves, and ginger)

½ tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp milk

1 TBS vanilla

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Combine pumpkin, sugar, oil, and egg. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Dissolve the baking soda with the milk and stir in (I added it to the pumpkin mixture rather than the flour, and added the vanilla here). Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix well.

Add vanilla, chocolate chips and nuts

Drop by spoonful on greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 10 minutes (I did 12) or until lightly brown and firm.

Makes 2 dozen
