Name: Pumpkin Surprise Cookies
Prep time: 30 min
Cook time: 15 min
Yield: 48 cookies
Ingredients: 1 cup butter, room temperature; 1 1/4 cups brown sugar; 3/4 cup sugar; 1 egg; 2 tsp vanilla extract; 1 1/4 cups pumpkin puree; 2 cups flour; 1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats; 1 tsp salt; 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice; 1/2 tsp cinnamon; 1 1/2 cups white chocolate (or any chocolate chip you prefer); 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries (or any dried fruit or nut you like)

Fall is in full swing and that means everything pumpkin, spice and yummy is everywhere! It seems like every store smells of all the best of fall… a little cinnamon, a little spice and a little sweet.

The Hubby loves this season as much as I do and has been handing out little “thank you’s” to his clients. He has given some these chocolate chip cookies, fall maple crunch and then some peanut butter cookie brownies but these little pumpkin delights are my favorite of the bunch for sure. They are light but loaded with tons of flavor in each bite. For this go around I used white chocolate chips and dried cranberries but you could use semi sweet chips or milk chocolate chips with any dried fruit you like or chopped nuts you like. Next time I am thinking dark chocolate chips with dried cherries…I am dreaming of them now.
