As some other reviewers pointed out, these cookies don't have a strong pumpkin flavor, but that's what I like about them. I used milk choc. chips and used the larger bag. That's the only change I made. My grand-daughters ages 5 and 3 love them!

I wish I had read the reviews beforehand as I found the recipe almost tasteless! To use the remainder of pumpkin I am tempted to try one more time and add lots of other spices.

Flavor was so bland, chocolate chips saved these cookies. Didn't use the extra spices. Won't make again.

Delicious cake-like cookies; I did add 1/2 t salt and 1 t pumpkin pie spice (which I might increase next time). I also did 1/2 cup white chips and 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips. Delicious!

The first time I made these I thought they were good, but wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be. Today I made them with 1/2 tsp. each of salt, ginger and nutmeg. SO much better!

Made these today with a mix of semi-sweet and dark chocolate. Also used extra cinnamon and added in some cloves, ginger and allspice as well. The cookies are good, but not as strong a pumpkin flavor as I would like.

Delicious and so easy, I took them to my parents and they were gone quickly and now I have people requesting the recipe.

I added raisins and chopped pecans and omitted the choc. chips. They were really good. I'm not crazy about choc. chips but the recipe sounded good otherwise. I'd definitely make them again this way and maybe next time I'll try a few with choc chips.

I made these heathier by using the following substitutions: For the butter, I use Light Blue Bonnet Sticks. For the sugars, I used Splendid white and brown sugars substitutes. I also used wheat flour for half of the flour. However because of my substitutions my cookies did not spread. So what I dropped is basically what I got for a cookie. The 1-1/2 cups of chocolate chips leaves you with 1/2 cup left over from a 12 oz bag. So I think next time I will either use the whole bag, or just 1 cup chocolate chips and substitute chopped nuts for the 1/2 cup. I had to bake mine a couple of minutes longer, but that could just be my oven.
