Personalized Pumpkin Cookies
2009 September 11
And it begins….here is the first pumpkin recipe for Pumpkin Season 2009. If you love soft baked cookies, these pumpkin cookies are for you. This recipe is vegan, and can be customized to create flavor combinations to please your personal taste buds. I kept it simple and made one batch with mini chocolate chips, and one batch with white chocolate chips. I thought of several flavor combinations that might by tasty: cranberry-walnut, white chocolate-macadamia nut, raisin-walnut, butterscotch chips…..What add-ins would you use to personalize your pumpkin cookies?

I haven’t found any vegan white chocolate chips in stores, but I found them online here: http://www.veganstore.com/809.html
I’m going to have to book mark this recipe. cookies look great and easy to make! yum yum Love anything and everything pumpkin!
Yay! The reason I fell in love with your blog in the first place has returned!
I’d add dulce de leche
Lovely cookies! I just like mine straight up..lol!
Helloooo…..you love me! I love white choc. chips and that is perfect. I am going to try to make these with agave nectar….ding-dang!!
Your Fall clip art is making me so happy! Those cookies look fabulous!
I make chocolate chip protein pumpkin bread every other day, all year round. I can’t wait to try these today as a nice twist on my beloved pumpkin.
Big thanks!
BRING ON THE PUMPKIN!!!! It was a pumpkin recipe that made me originally find your blog
MMM those look amazing! I would add chocolate chips, or even some nuts maybe?
Ha ha… I was expecting to see cookies that said “Megan” on them. Maybe that’s what I would add… some white chocolate icing, maybe even spelling out our name! And definitely chocolate chunks… probably bittersweet.
FINALLY! I have found someone that shares my love (and OBSESSION) with Pumpkin! I am anxious to try your recipies! Keep them coming! I think I would add some nuts to my cookies…a cookie is not a cookie without pecans!
Megan, you are a genius! My mix-in would be dried cranberries or raisins – because I think it would taste good and make the cookies look more fall like
Chocolate chips would be my add in. I will so be trying this!! Thanks, I love to bake with pumpkin.
ohhhhh pumpkin cookies, I love pumpkin anything and that’s one of my favorite things about the fall season. I think I would add some caramel chips or peanut butter chips yummmmmy!
I am always “personalizing” cookies for my family! One of my nieces doesn’t like chocolate. We may have to “send her back” LOL!
Great post!!
Looks very good! I would likely choose some chocolate chips for an add-in. We have a few pumkins in the garden this year, thanks for the recipe.
These look amazing! I love the cranberry walnut suggestion! Darn, I’ve had the munchies (hehe) all day and now, I might have to go make these!!!
I think pumpkin and chocolate is the perfect combination. Raisins would be great too. Maybe Raisinets?
These look great, Megan! Now that it’s almost Fall, I can’t get enough pumpkin, cinnamon and apples. Any suggestions for what I should do with leftover pumpkin pie filling? I mistakenly thought I was buying canned pumpkin…oops! As always, thanks for sharing!
Oh no…reading this post on an empty stomach and suddenly craving cookies. They look deliciously amazing. My fave add ins? Don’t judge, but pretzels (all broken up) and toffee pieces. Maybe not all at once. Or maybe all at once. Crunchy, gooey yumminess.
Megan, These look amazing! I cannot wait to try these.
zesty
Holy yum! I gotta buy a jar of pumpkin next time I’m at the store!
mmm, I wonder how cranberries would be?
I just found your blog and I love it! You’ve got so many interesting recipes
