Yesterday I roasted 3 pumpkins and made TONS pumpkin puree. Yes, finally I cracked open the last fresh pumpkins we had leftover Halloween. Yep they lasted good, still firm and lovely 😉
I am seeing a lot of pumpkin dishes or bakings in coming days, I know it’s no longer autumn, but I am that girl, who can have pumpkin spice coffee anytime, if only they are available anytime 😂 So yeah, there might be pumpkin related foods will be posted on my account, or not. Who knows, I contemplate so much 😂
Meanwhile, here is a recipe for a very yummy soft pumpkin and chocolate chip cookies that I baked last night. It made about a dozen plus a couple more. My son packed a couple to his lunch box this morning 😊
Now, before I give the recipe, since in one of my plans in using the pumpkin is to make pumpkin pie per my son’s request, these cookies are almond flavored, but you can obviously make them with pumpkin spice 😉
