Pumpkin and chocolate are a delicious combination! These pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are sure to become a gluten-free favorite!
The original recipe called for milk chocolate chips. However, I have never been a fan of milk chocolate. It was not until my husband introduced me to dark chocolate that I liked chocolate at all. Now I am hooked! I eat dark chocolate almost every day, and sometimes twice a day!
The dark chocolate compliments the pumpkin. You won’t believe these moist, cake-like are gluten-free! Be sure to serve with a tall glass of cold milk.

Substitute the 60% chocolate chips with semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips.
These cookies are incredibly moist. To prevent them from sticking together, stack them between pieces of parchment paper or place them on a tray and cover with plastic wrap.
