WEEKLY RECIPES: LOW FAT PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES AND SOME FALL DECORATING


Fall is in the air and that means an excuse to decorate! I think Ian and I are quickly outgrowing our little condo, but there is something so cozy about the small space that I think we will always remember fondly. I found these fall leaf lights at CVS of all places for only $10! I bought a set for my mom too. They are very cozy and can go anywhere.



I have been searching high and low for this special recipe that everyone absolutely loves. I cannot remember where I found it but luckily I took the time to write it out. I have tried several other variations online but this is really the most delicious one out there. See recipe below.


Ingredients:
1 cup canned pumpkin
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 egg
1 tbsp vanilla
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp milk
1 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips (okay I used the whole bag)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix dry ingredients and then blend in wet ingredients. Spoon dough into equal distributions. Bake on parchment lined cookie sheet for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
