Pumpkin Drop Cookies
Description
Pumpkin Drop Cookies are made by combining a box of unprepared spice cake mix with pure canned pumpkin, yielding a batter that is moist and rich with autumnal flavors. Semi-sweet chocolate chips are folded in to add pockets of sweetness that contrast the warm spices in the cake mix.
The cookies are portioned as drops onto a cookie sheet and baked at 375 degrees for about 8 to 9 minutes, resulting in soft cookies with a tender crumb. Adjusting the size of the drops allows for either larger, bakery-style cookies or smaller, bite-sized treats, affecting both yield and calorie content.
These cookies are a good choice for seasonal gatherings or anytime a quick baked treat with pumpkin and spices is desired. The use of a boxed spice mix streamlines the process, making the recipe accessible to bakers of all levels.
