Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 teaspoon milk optional
1 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and salt.
In another bowl, combine together sugar, pumpkin, vegetable oil, egg, milk, and vanilla.
Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and combine until just mixed then stir in the chocolate chips.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or freeze for 15 minutes.
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees and place parchment paper on baking sheets or baking mats.
Using a tablespoon or dough scoop, drop cookies onto baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10 minutes. Allow cooked cookies to cool on the sheets for at least 2 minutes, then move them to cooling racks.

Notes

Make your own pumpkin spice by mixing 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
Refrigerating the cookie dough for 30 minutes (or freezing for 15 minutes) before forming into balls will help them from spreading out and will keep their shape when they are cooked.
Add in a cup of chopped walnuts or pecans.
