Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is your basic pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe. (Except softer and yummier.)

1 c canned pumpkin
1 c white sugar
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 egg
2 c all-purpose flour
2 t baking powder
2 t ground cinnamon
1/2 t salt
1 t baking soda
1 t milk
1 T vanilla extract
2 c chocolate chips
1/2 c chopped walnuts (optional)

Combine pumpkin, sugar, vegetable oil, and egg. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Dissolve the baking soda with the milk and stir in. Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix well. Add vanilla, chocolate chips, and nuts. Drop by spoonful on greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 10 minutes or until lightly brown.

Zucchini Bread

Combine in bowl:

3 c flour
1 t baking soda
1/4 t baking powder
3 t cinnamon
1 t salt

Beat 3 eggs until fluffy then add:
2 c sugar
3/4 c oil
2 t vanilla
2 1/2 c grated zucchini
1/2 c nuts (optional)
1 bag milk chocolate chips (optional)

Blend mixtures together and pour into greased loaf pans. (2 large or 3 small) Bake at 325 degrees for 50 minutes or until done.

***My favorite way to make this is to crush the nuts then put them on the dough just before baking. It makes the crust extra crunchy. YUMMMMMMM!
