Great recipe! I used fresh pumpkin. The dough wasn't stiff, but the cookies still turned out great, because I refrigerated it for a little while.

These made a ton. Everyone liked them. Might add chopped nuts the next time.

We absolutely loved these. I did make the first batch with a 1/4 c. of batter but the cookies were HUGE. After the first batch I downsized to a little more than a tablespoon of batter and baked them for 13 min. and they were perfect. These are very tasty! Thanks, Sugar!

I so would not have chosen this recipe if it were not for the reviews. The idea of chocolate and pumpkin just made me wince. However, I am glad that I did try it. I made them for our meeting last night and they went over like gangbusters.

These are the greatest cookies! I make them year-round! YUMMY! They freeze well in between wax paper. I make smaller cookies, but the BIG ones are good too.
