October Has Two Winners!

The contestants for October were Brown Sugar Super Chewy Cookies, Pumpkin Snickerdoodle, and Pumpkin Chocolate Chip.  The competition was neck and neck, ending in a tie between Brown Sugar Chewy Cookies and Pumpkin Snickerdoodle, even with extended voting.  Luckily, we had a couple of different festivities the last week of October so I had the perfect excuse to bake both.

Here's the recipe for the Brown Sugar Super Chewy Cookies.  They tasted fantastic, but they weren't chewy like I thought they would be.  They were actually a bit on the crispy side.  I'm not sure if I baked them too long or if something else was amiss or if I just have a different understanding of what a chewy cookie is.

The Pumpkin Snickerdoodle were amazing.  This recipe made about 3 1/2 dozen cookies.  I even made them a couple of days ahead of time and they stayed soft.  Absolute perfection!  To me, these cookies should be a Fall staple.  From the smell of them baking to the last yummy bite, they are the epitome of Fall.

Here's the link to vote for your favorite November cookie: Twix, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip, and Pecan Pie.  Voting closes Sunday, November 14.
