PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES


PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

1 c. Butter (2 sticks) softened
2 c. sugar
4 c. flour
2 c. pumpkin (canned okay)

2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. orange zest
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. baking powder 12 oz. chocolate chips

Cream together shortening and sugar. Add egg, vanilla, orange zest and pumpkin. Mix well. Add dry ingredients and chocolate chips. Mix. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes. Makes approximately 8 dozen cookies.

Can be refrigerated and used in batches. Or use a scoop to make cookies to freeze. I put them on a wax paper lined cookie sheet and freeze overnight. When frozen, place as many as you want in freezer bags and put back in freezer.
