Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Cookies

In the November issue of Food Network Magazine, I came across a recipe for Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Cookies and had to bake them. I increased the amount of pumpkin spice because I wanted the spices to really be the star of this cookie. The aroma while they baked was great from the spices and chocolate, and the cookies have a nice bite and are packed with flavor. The chips are Nestle Toll House Holiday Limited Edition Semi-Sweet Chocolate with Red and Green Colored Morsels. This is a special cookie and you should try it. Add 1 cup of chopped nuts if you desire. Recipe below. Happy Holidays!
