FALL SPICE OATMEAL COOKIES


My kids suggested that I make some oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for them to take hunting with them. Of course, I like to make them "season-worthy" . Because I love the spices that sum up fall I decided to see what I could do with them... This is the recipe I came up with.


Cream Together:

1 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup sugar


Add:

1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs


Then add:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 1/4 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

2 3/4 cups quick-cooking oats


Then add 1 pkg mini semi-sweet chocolate chips.


Drop by teaspoonfulls on greased cookie sheets. Flatten slightly. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Let cool in pan then remove to wire rack. These will stay soft as long as they are stored in an airtight container. If they do start to get hard, place a piece of bread in the container with them and they will soften right back up!


This recipe made 5 dozen with my small cookie scoop!
