3 cups sugar

3 teaspoons vanilla
5 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons nutmeg
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1 29-ounce can solid-pack pumpkin
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Beat oil and sugar in mixing bowl. Add eggs and vanilla, beating well. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt together. Add to sugar mixture alternately with pumpkin, beating well after each addition. Fold in chocolate chips and nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets.

Tasted great! I prefer a chewy cookie, any tips on how to get these to be more chewy and less airy and cake like?? five stars

I love these cookies they are delicious but... you should try taking out the chocolate chips and instead putting on a dab of cream cheese frosting it's delicious five stars

I love this recipe it tastes so good however I do suggest a cream cheese frosting it tastes better. I made 60 cookies for my family of six and they were all gone. This was on Thanksgiving and I plan to make these every year. I also make them for christmas and much more theses cookies are not only amazing but they bring our family together. five stars
