What You Need to Make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

• 1/2 C unsalted sweet cream butter, melted
• 1/2 C pumpkin puree
• 1/2 C white sugar
  
• 1/4 C brown sugar, packed
  
• 1 tbsp Molasses 
  
• 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  
• 1 1/2 C old-fashioned rolled oats

How Long Do These Pumpkin Cookies Last?

Once you put these awesome cookies into an airtight container, you can expect them to last on the counter about 3-5 days. Although, I’m going to be honest, these cookies don’t last that long around our house because they have a tendency to be eaten, sometimes within the first 24 hours. So, I’m thinking of making a double batch next time, just so I can have one the next day! LOL!

Can You Freeze These Oatmeal Pumpkin Cookies?

Absolutely. Just put the cookies in an airtight container and pop them in the freezer, then when you’re ready to eat them, defrost them on the counter for a few minutes.

I think it’s better if you freeze the cookie dough, honestly, though. I mean, chocolate doesn’t do a fantastic job when it’s been frozen, but if you bake the chocolate after you’ve had it in the freezer, that tends to reset it’s chalky exterior a bit. 

Help! My Cookies Always Burn on the Second Batch!

Oh, this is a common problem, seriously. And I have a quick tip just for you! If you have other problems with other foods over cooking in your oven, you might try calibrating it. I haven’t done that in a long time for my oven, but you really should do it every once in a while.
