Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups light brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup canola oil or avocado oil
  • 1 1/2 cups solid pack pumpkin puree (NOT pumpkin pie mix)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 cups UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (Bleached flour toughens baked goods)
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tbsp. ground ginger
  • 1/2 tbsp. ground cloves
  • 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 3 oz. box Jello cheesecake pudding and pie filling mix
  • 12 oz. bag cinnamon chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Lightly grease baking sheets or spray with cooking spray.
  • Mix the oil, brown sugar, pumpkin, eggs, vanilla, cheesecake pudding mix, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and pumpkin pie spice with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Stir in flour and cinnamon chips and continue stirring until mixture is very well mixed.

  • Rotate cookie sheets on oven racks after 6 minutes of baking time.

Notes

NOTE: This cookie is really a drop cookie. You can drop with an ice cream scoop to get uniform looking cookies, if desired. I prefer to roll the cookies, but you MUST keep your hands moist while rolling or the dough will stick to your fingers.
