Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal Cookies



Sometimes all you need is a little spice to make everything nice. That's what I think anyway. Today I will be baking Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal Cookies with white chocolate chips. Sound amazing? Wait to you see the finished product. These cookies in my opinion could be made all year round. Subtle hints of cranberry and white chocolate combined with pumpkin make this an enjoyable treat for any occasion. It's a very simple recipe.

Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter; softened
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 can pure pumpkin puree
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup cranberries

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and salt in a medium bowl.
Beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in large mixer bowl until light and fluffy.
3. Add pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract; mix well. Add flour mixture; combine until all ingredients are incorporated. Fold in white chocolate chips and cranberries.
4. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheet(s).
5. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned. Cool on baking sheet(s) for 2 minutes; remove to wire rack to cool completely.

Hope you enjoy. Until next time; Here's to cake wishes and chocolate dreams.
