{Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies}

My mom made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies every Thanksgiving (well, maybe a few years she made them). She used mini chocolate chips in it, and they were "oh... SO moist!" I fell in love with them. But, I kept hearing several friends tell me "try THIS recipe, it's the BEST", and so this year, I am trying a new recipe. It's my friend Rachel's recipe. I had to change it around a bit due to some of the ingredients I was short on, but it still is a very moist, yummy cookie!!

Ingredients
1 c butter

1 c shortening

2 c sugar
2 c pumpkin
2 eggs
2 c chocolate chips
4 c flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt

Cream shortening, sugar, pumpkin and eggs. Add dry ingredients. Stir in chocolate chips, Bake until light brown (about 10 minutes). Bake at 350 for 10 min.

Amy's notes: I used mini chocolate chips, a full 12 oz bag. That way, you definitely get SOME chocolate on each cookie. Also, this cookie does not spread while baking. So, when usually you can get 12 cookies on a cookie sheet, you can get about 18-20 cookies or even more b/c you can space them together very closely. This entire recipe makes about 5-7 dozen (I stopped counting b/c I was eating them as I was baking.....)
