These are my favorite Pumpkin Dark Chocolate Oat Cookies! All the best ingredients in a cookie you could want, oats, dark chocolate, and pumpkin.
Cookies are a favorite go to dessert in my house. One that has the yummy flavors of fall is a winner. These are quick and simple to prepare. Need a quick and simple fall cookie recipe??? There is nothing like when you are craving a cookie and you don’t have in your kitchen. These are my favorite go to fall inspired recipe.
That is basically how these cookies came to be. Cookies are a perfect little dessert (or sometimes gumbo) to finish or meal. Or like me I get a craving for chocolate and a little something sweet in the afternoon so keep me going. I have these dark chocolate pumpkin oatmeal cookies in the dessert category, but in all seriousness they can be breakfast and snack as well. These are wonderful to have on hand for the kids when they come home from school or to pack in their lunch box. Also keep a batch of frozen cookie dough in the freezer for those late night cravings.
