Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Heat Oven to 375

1 C shortening
2 C sugar
2 eggs
2 t vanilla
15 oz canned pumpkin
4 C flour
1 1/2 t baking soda
1 1/2 t baking powder
1 t salt
1 t cinnamon
pinch nutmeg
12 oz semisweet chocolate chips

Cream shortening and sugar. beat in eggs. Stir in vanilla and pumpkin. Add dry ingredients and mix until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by large spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet and bake 12 minutes.

Delicious cookie recipe from my friend Steph H. I like to bump up the amount of cinnamon and nutmeg in mine to enhance the pumpkin flavor. These cookies are so soft and yummy that you're going to have to have people in mind to give some to before hand or you'll end up eating all of them yourself.
