These are the easiest cookies you will ever make and they turn out moist, soft and delicious to boot! It only takes a few ingredients and you can have cookies in the oven in about 5 minutes.! I do mainly from-scratch cooking but with having MS and having an autistic son, I do not have the time or energy to cook from scratch all the time. This is the perfect recipe for times like that.
Cake Mix Pumpkin Cookies
1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin puree
1 box spice cake mix or yellow cake mix (15 oz.-18 oz.)
2 c. mini semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
1 c. chopped pecans (optional)
1 lg. egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, the egg, vanilla, cinnamon and cake mix. Do not use the mixer to mix the ingredients. Just use a large spoon to gently mix the dough. Be sure not to over-mix them. Fold in the chocolate chips and pecans if using them. The dough will be sticky and that is okay.
Drop by spoonfuls onto your prepared baking sheet. Bake for 9-10 minutes. The cookies are done with they look done and the tops should spring back slightly when touched. The tops should not look glossy.
Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the baking sheet. Best to eat them the same day they are cooked. Makes 36-40 cookies, depending on the size. Each cookie has 18 carbs.
