harvest chip cookies
It feels like fall when I make these cookies. Pumpkin is enhanced with cranberries and chocolate chips for a nice change from regular chocolate chip cookies. You could also substitute pureed butternut squash or sweet potatoes for the pumpkin, or white chocolate for the semi-sweet chocolate chips if you'd like, and they'd still be delicious!
