From Emily's Kitchen... Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies!

 

Everyone has a favorite pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe, this is ours :).  

To make forming the cookies easier, I use a 1 1/2 T cookie scoop (http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Grips-Medium-Cookie-Scoop/dp/B0000CDVD2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1317596485&sr=8-1).  

Cookie scoops are also nice to have when filling muffin tins, forming meatballs, or scooping out round pieces of watermelon.
