Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

My husband and father in law love those soft pumpkin cookies that you get at the grocery store. But, you get like 10 cookies for $4.00!! Too expensive. This recipe imitates them very well and makes about 36-40 cookies. (This also works well with gluten free flour and 1/4-1/2 tsp xanthum gum)

1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
1 15 oz can pumpkin
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp all spice
2 eggs
1 Tbsp vanilla
4 cups flour (or 3 and 1/2 cups gf flour and the xanthum gum)
12 oz chocolate chips

Beat together butter, sugar and pumpkin until well combined and fluffy.

Add next 6 dry ingredients and beat until combined.

Beat in eggs and vanilla

Beat in flour

Stir in chocolate chips

Drop rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes.
