Deluxe Pumpkin Drop Cookies


 
This is an updated version (and our new favorite) of the basic Pumpkin Drop Cookie Recipe. 
This makes a double batch.  If you don't need that many cookies,
  1. Bake them anyway and take some to your neighbors, or 
  2. Scoop out the remaining dough onto a cool cookie sheet lined with wax paper.  Pop them in the freezer and when they are set transfer them to a freezer bag to bake later.  Same temp and time, plus a minute or two.

Add the following ingredients to a large bowl or stand mixer, mix after each additional ingredient is added.
1 large can pumpkin
2/3 cup milk (may substitute water)
2 packages spice cake mix
1 cup quick oats
1 package semisweet chocolate chips  (reserve 1/4 cup or so for the end. Once I scoop out all the cookies I can scrape out 4-5 more cookies from the edges, and I sprinkle more chips in the bowl so they get some too.)



Drop by spoonfuls on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 15-17 minutes at 350 degrees.
