Easy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe is so easy, whip it up for a yummy treat this fall, your family will smile for sure!

Ingredients
1 (18 1/4 ounce) box spice cake mix
1 (15 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin (the small can)
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup cream cheese frosting (optional)

Directions
1 Preheat oven to 350°F.

2 Spray cookie sheets lightly with vegetable spray.

3 In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pumpkin with a fork or mixer until well blended; stir in chocolate chips.

4 Drop by large rounded spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet; they don't flatten out much so however you place them on the sheet is pretty much how they'll look after baking.

5 Bake for 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of your cookies.

6 Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for up to 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

7 Frost, if desired.

8 How many cookies you get depends on how large you make them of course - just increase your baking time if making larger cookies (it's truly difficult to burn these, but they will get crispier & less moist); Mine, made with a medium size cookie scoop, take 13-15 minutes to bake and yield about 3 dozen.

ENJOY!
