Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies--no cake mix & no eggs!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies. They are everywhere this time of year. But these are not your ordinary spice cake & pumpkin recipe....like those, these are egg-less, but they are made from scratch and worth it.

Also, do you have a cookie scoop? Or was I the last person around to get one?! My daughter and son-in-law kindly gave me one for my birthday recently, and boy, do I owe them!! It is the best. thing. ever.

Also, if you see these silicone baking mats at your local Costco {a pack of three for $18.99? Holla!} get them. Like yesterday.

That's all. Enjoy the cookies!
