The recipe calls for 1 cup of canned pumpkin, not one can. If you used a 15 oz can of pumpkin, then you used almost 2 cups and therefore your cookies would not come out right.

I was looking for a way to use up some extra canned pumpkin that I had. I am so happy to have come across this recipe! The texture of these cookies is perfect. I added clove and nutmeg and used dark chocolate chips. Yum!

Easy, excellent recipe! I used vanilla chips and 1 cup caramel baking bits as those are favorites of my college kids. These went fast at the football tailgate!

I followed some of the tips here on the reviews and ramped up the cinnamon measurement, along with adding some nutmeg, cloves, and I also added ginger. I thought these turned out wonderfully! These cookies are the first in the chocolate family that I've made that actually turned out moist and chewy. I'm sure the pumpkin helps with that. I thought the chocolate chip ratio was good, too, since I think too many chocolate chip cookie recipes call for too many. ... I love these!

To nbrugs: Re-read the recipe. It calls for 1 Cup canned pumpkin, NOT one can of pumpkin. Maybe you would like to try the recipe again, for better results.

This recipe was a huge let down. My cookies did not bake. The recipe called for one can of pumpkin but didn't specify the size, there was only one size at the store, but unfortunately it was too large and made my cookies not bake. I had really high expectations for this recipe, but was let down.

I had company over yesterday and several of these cookies were gone by the end of the day. They turned out really good! I also like that it makes a large batch.

I also added the vanilla chips instead of chocolate ones. They do look more festive but next time I won't add as many...too sweet for my tastes.

This was my first time making these and after reading the reviews, I decided to add a dash of nutmeg, ginger and cloves to add some extra spice. They are good, but next time I think I will add a touch more spice and some chopped pecans.

i send cookies to my father every few months, usually chocolate chip. but when fall rolled around i thought this recipe would be perfect. he enjoyed them and they seemed to stay moist longer then regular choc.chip cookies. i personally think their lacking something, i expected a richer flavored cookie.. but if dad likes them then the get 4 stars from me.
