Halloween!

It's Halloween! It is! Really! ... Okay, soon. Really soon. I've got a coupon for it and everything. So it has to be soon.


And a recipe. Because I owe you one. It's been a while. These cookies are sweet and fluffy. The season's most popular latte dished up on a plate!


Pumpkin Spice Latte Cookies

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup Blood Orange Olive Oil
1 large egg
1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree*
1/2 cup cold coffee
1/2 cup butterscotch chips (optional)

Preheat the oven to 350°.

Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium bowl. In very large bowl, mix the oil, sugar, pumpkin and egg. 

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet. Combine well. fold in the butterscotch chips now, if using.

Bake 15-18 minutes or until the edges begin to brown. Cool on the baking sheets before moving to racks.

*If you only have pumpkin pie filling, you can use that, but don't put in any cinnamon or nutmeg.
