You might not LIKE her music, but you will LOVE her cookies! While this isn't a recipe that she thought of it was one that is her go-to which is how I found it! This are so delicious not just because of the pumpkin spice but because of their texture. It's a cross between a cookie and a cake. So if you're not a fan of soft cookies this is not for you! Your house is going to smell amazing and your tummy is going to be so happy. The only thing thats altered on this recipe is the addition of pumpkin spice. The original recipe only calls for pumpkin but adding the pumpkin spice really reenforces the pumpkin in the cookies. No lie I crank some Christmas music yesterday and had a ball making these...yes I maybe jumping the gun but it was a lot of fun!

Next using a mixer, beat the room temperature butter until smooth. Then mix the white and brown sugars together and then, a little at a time, beat them into the butter until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Then stir in the chips. I added them right into the mixer but you can hand mix them in too if you would like.

Scoop the cookie dough by heaping tablespoons onto the prepared cookie sheets and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cookies are browned around the edges.

Remove the cookie sheets from the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes. Take the cookies off with a spatula and cool them on wire racks.
