pumpkin spice cocoa...



so i have a recommendation... this stuff was on sale so i decided to try it. being fall and pumpkin season and all, which by the way, i LOVE! i'm kinda picky when it comes to pumpkin stuff...

pumpkin smash smoothie from jamba juice...not a huge fan
pumpkin pie... huge fan
pumpkin spice fro yo from red mango... it's ok
pumpkin chocolate chip cookies...huge fan

you get the idea...anyway, for those who love chai, but don't want to drink black tea, this is an awesome replacement! just a little milk or cream and you get the creamy spice flavor, it's not to heavy on the pumpkin or chocolate. it's divine!

and here is a recipe for these...YUM... it came from my sweet friend:)


Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 c. shortening
2 c. sugar
2 c. pumpkin
4 c. flour

1 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
4 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
2 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. raisins or chocolate chips
1 c. nuts

Cream shortening and sugar.  Add pumpkin and eggs; mix well.  Mix in flour, soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together.  Mix together well and add vanilla.  Add raisins or chocolate chips and nuts.  Bake on a greased cookie sheet.  Bake for 12 minutes at 375.  Makes about 10 dozen cookies.

ENJOY!
