Great Pumpkin cookies

Okay I did it I made my first double batch of Great Pumpkin cookies or as they are called in our house pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. The recipe I have is a little different than the link (I only use 1 cup oats, put chocolate chips in, do not add raisins and do not use nuts). I have had this recipe for over 20 years. I am always on the lookout for something that my family could like. (I LOVE a crunchy cookie my hubby likes soft and chewy.) These cookies are my oldest's absolute favorite. He loves to take them in his lunch and is always excited when he sees me making them.  They freeze well. In fact that is the way I keep them. They are a moist cookie and it helps to separate them with plastic wrap. Hmm I wonder how long they will last. Fall is in the air and we have had lots of rain the past two weeks. I'm sure allergies will be flaring up soon. Have a great September.
