Last night I decided to make some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. (They are seriously yummy!) I decided to double the batch to make sure we would have enough for our small group on Thursday night. Doubling the batch was a bad idea! I couldn’t even use my mixer to stir it because there was so much, luckily my buff husband stirred the batter for me. It ended up taking me about 2.5 hours from start to finish (I didn’t even do the dishes yet because it was past my bedtime) and I estimate I made somewhere between 8 and 10 dozen cookies. I wish I had more room in my freezer to store some of these. To all the lucky people that live near me you will be getting some cookies.
Here is the recipe for those who are interested, I got it from my mom:
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 can pumpkin – 15 oz
2 cups sugar

Mix together then add to batter:
2 tablespoons milk
