I made these with white chocolate chips instead, but I'm sure they were every bit as delicious as the regular chocolate chips! They definitely are best straight out of the fridge, and very fluffy and cakey. Delicious!

These cookies are AWESOME! We have a natural foods store in my town that make pumpkin cookies that are very similar to these and I have always wanted the recipe. These, by far, blow them out of the water. I've made these cookies twice now and actually left out one cup of chocolate chips the second time. I also use the 60% cacao choc. chips by Ghiardelli. They add an extra zing to the cookie. Thanks for the great recipe!

love, love, love. My kids eat them up like crazy- and with a cup of pumpkin they aren't too unhealthly. I substitute a 1/4 cup applesauce for half of the oil and you would never know the difference. A keeper.

I've made three times now and everyone loves them! They are more like a muffin or cake than a cookie and that's what makes them yummy.

These were GREAT! After reading many of the reviews, I did cut the the cinnamon down to 1 tsp and then added 1 tsp of nutmeg. I also added 3 drops of red food coloring, simply for a more "pumpkin" look. Also, I baked these at 365 degrees for 12 minutes and they were PERFECT. Husband gave them a 10 out of 10 which is a huge rating for him!

These were the hit of our bake sale at work. They are definitely a different consistency - more like a pumpkin bread. And I was afraid there was going to be too much chocolate, but a lot of chocolate really helps make them sweet. Yummy!

Oh my lord, these are the best cookies you will ever taste or even dream of. Some may say that they aren't very pretty, others may say that they are too cake-like, but in my house, as soon as they come out of the oven they are GONE.I am 13 years old, so obviously, they are easy to make. The only thing I changed, was that I used white chocolate chips instead of regular chocolate chips. This makes them even more incredibly delicious.5 stars all the way.

awesome! I made some substitutions to make them a little healthier. I did half oil (canola) and half applesauce. I also did half whole wheat and half white whole wheat. I only used 1 cup of chocolate chips instead of two. I only used the white of the egg also. Definitely will make again.

very good flavor but not enough to get over the texture after they have cooled. if you eat them IMMEDIATELY out of the oven they are delicious, but just not very practical for cookies. i made these for my son's daycare Christmas party and the kids took one bite and spit them out. :(

I thought this recipe was going to turn out great, but it did not. The "cookies" turned out kind of bland and by the second day, they were moist & more like fruit bars. Very messy, not worth the $$ or the time & effort.

Wonderful cookie! I add nearly 1 more cup of flour to make them more cake-like. I'm not sure if it's a high altitude thing or what, but it perfects this recipe (for us).

This is a good recipe however, if you're a pumpkin freak like me and love everything pumpkin I would suggest adding less chocolate chips. The chocolate chips are a little too over powering.

Everyone who has eaten these cookies has loved them, and then asked for the recipe! A few tips: 1. don't use applesauce instead of oil, the cookies come out more like bread and are too tough. 2. substitute mini reeses pieces, or peanut butter chips for the chocolate chips. Sounds weird, but tastes delicious. 3. as you take cookies out of the oven, or a minute before, flatten cookies with a spatula. This way they look more like cookies than little puffs. Also, I think they taste better. All around a great recipe and I love that it doesn't have butter in it!

Really delicious. Made the recipe without the walnuts, and didn't put in the full two cups of chocolate chips. The pumpkin is pretty subtle and I think if I had the chocolate would just be overwhelming. Very soft, cake-like cookies. The only thing they lack is a little bit of crustiness to make them perfect. The recipe could easily be adapted to make some mighty fine scones.

I used pumpkin spice instead of the other spices, it tasted just like pumpkin pie! My only complaint is that they are too soft, I ended up calling them "cakesters" instead of cookies. The flavor was excellent though!
