Prepare Today Homemade- Pumpkin Cookies

I love pumpkin and I'll eat it in almost anything, but pumpkin cookies are my favorite.  I buy canned pumpkin in the fall when it is the cheapest so I can bake pumpkin bread and cookies all year long!

 Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 C brown sugar
1 C pumpkin
1/2 C oil (or 1/2 C pureed white beans)
1 t vanilla
2 C flour
1 t baking soda
1 t baking powder
1/2 t salt 
1/2 t cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
1/4 t ginger
1 C chocolate chips

In a mixing bowl combine the brown sugar through vanilla.  Stir until combined.  Add the rest of the ingredients, except the chocolate chips, and combing.  Stir in chocolate chips.  Place by tablespoon onto a greased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.  Cool for 1 minute before moving to a cooling rack.  Makes 3-4 dozen.

I have no idea where I found this recipe.  I had it written in my Better Homes and Garden cookbook on the cookie index.  It is similar to the pumpkin cookies that you find at the grocery store.
