Pumpkin Chip Drops

"With a combination of pumpkin, oats and chocolate chips, these soft drop cookies make delightful fall treats," reports Regina Stock of Topeka, Kansas. "I sometimes make them into bars and increase the baking time," she adds.

    This is a very tasty cookies. My entire family loves them especially my picky little son. Made these for a bake sale and they were the first to sell out! This ones a keeper.

    Let me start by saying that these cookies are very good tasting. I rated the recipe good, because of this. I won't be making it again because I'm not a fan of cake-style cookies. I found these to come out almost the texture of muffins. They are moist, have wonderful flavor, and are soft. The only reason I wouldn't make these again is because, as I said, I'm not a fan of cake-style cookies. If you don't mind that, give these a try. They really are tasty.
