So living in Wisconsin there are some definite differences in the food out here. For example there is a lot of sausauge and beer. For dessert you have danish and all sorts of other types of pastries. Very German I guess? But what I can't fathom is no pumpkin chocolate chip cookies? I searched and searched at the stores they didn't one single type of cookie that came close! So a past co-worker of mine (and great baker I might add) sent me a recipe for a quick and easy cookie to get my craving taken care of. I have yet to try it of course.
"Hey Tammy! I hope that you had a fun Halloween yesterday. You said that you were craving pumpkin-chocolate-chip goodness? Here is the recipe that I always use for cookies/muffins. So easy and delicious:
1 (15 oz.) can pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
1 pkg (18.25 oz) spice cake mix
Chocolate chips (however many you want, I usually use 1 - 2 cups of semi-sweet).
Mix them all together (the batter will be really thick, but don't add any water/oil/eggs/etc. like it says on the cake mix, just use the dry mix!) and drop by spoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes or until nice and puffy. For muffins just put them in muffin liners (12 of them) and bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes or until the tops spring back when you touch them.
Enjoy! I hope that things are going well for you!"
