I've made two batches of these already !!!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup splenda
1 snack size pre-measured cup of No Sugar Added Natural Applesauce
1 egg (use Egg Beaters for no fat!)
2 cups white whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp fat free milk
1 tbsp vanilla extract/or sf vanilla syrup
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (I used about 1/2 cup and used these sugar free chips: http://www6.netrition.com/sensato_sf_choco_chips.html
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1 scoop unflavored or vanilla protein powder (optional) *I forgot this, so I don't know if this would change the taste of the recipe!

1. Combine pumpkin, splenda, applesauce and egg in bowl. In seperate bowl stir together flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon and salt. Dissolve the baking soda with the milk and then stir in. Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix well.

2. Add vanilla, chocolate chips and nuts.

3. Drop by spoonful on greased cookie sheet and bake in pre-heated at 350* for 9-10 minutes.

How funny! I was just posting a 'apple/fall recipe' thread, when i saw yours & figured I'd check it out. It looks like you have a lot of great recipes here. Although I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin, I would like to try pumpkin soup one time, just to say I've tried it. My Mom makes pumpkin fluff for Thanksgiving & its always a hit & no one even knows that it contains no 'real' sugar.

Good luck! I'm going to post my thread now, so stop by & you may get more ideas!
